Mike Farb and Unhackthevote.com

[The Hitman]

Hi everyone,

I read a few posts on here about Mike Farb and unhackthevote.com. His Twitter posts (https://twitter.com/mikefarb1) are interesting and suggest that someone (Russia) changed the actual vote totals.

I will admit that I believe this is more likely than Trump somehow carrying Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. See also http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/news/a55603/russia-hack-voting-totals/

That being said, do we know anything about him?

I also found this story on DailyKos questioning his methods. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/6/1/1667848/-Election-Fraud-Myths-Unhack-The-Vote-Rehashes-Old-Mistakes

Anyone with a statistics background take a look at his data?

I just worry about following a Louise Mensch type figure that has little grounding in reality. It's also worth nothing though that they appear to not get along.

1. I began Twitter last December

Fast method for news
Plenty of stuff to be wary about
You can figure it out though
Discovered Farb in that manner
Began to follow

Makes state by state case
Valid to me

2. Please explain how Michigan's paper ballots were hacked

Also please explain why the counties in Wisconsin that hand recounted didn't differ significantly from the counties that machine recounted.

Mike Farb doesn't know what he's talking about. He's no different than the unskewthepolls.com guys from 2012 in terms of how little he actually understands.

4. Also, explain why no losing candidate claims that the vote totals were hacked

You'd think they might have noticed...

3. He is not a statistics authority himself and has fallen into some ratfucker traps.

There are fake election integrity "activists" who push false premises and pollute the water to discredit the valid work. Farb fell for some of those traps or he is promoting the same ideas. He's been advised and hasn't heeded good advice. He still pushes fake statistics. That alone makes me very suspicious of his true intent.

All too often, the donate button crowd does nothing new, just pushes other people's work, and drains away activist money that could otherwise do something more than support someone who does nothing except grab attention.
