62 GOP-held House seats: Actual results vs. Forecast Model : TIA
62 GOP-held House seats: Actual results vs. Forecast Model 
 
 
TruthIsAll    
 
FRAUD SCENARIO ANALYSIS					

62 GOP-held  House seats: Actual results vs. Forecast Model
The current scorecard: 231D-197R with 7 seats undecided.

The model projects that the Democrats would win 41 of the 62
GOP seats,
assuming ZERO fraud. They won 29 with 7 races still undecided.


Model Assumptions:					
Uncounted (spoiled, discraded, etc) ballots: 3% of total
votes, 75% of them
Democratic. This is based on the historical evidence that
uncounted votes
are primarily from Democratic minority precincts.

Switched votes: 4% of Democratic votes are shifted to the
Republicans.

Fraud      Seats Won  	
Scenario:    Dem	GOP		
No Fraud 	41	21		
Fraud	      25	37		

Given the fraud scenario, the Democrats could expect to win 25
GOP-held
seats (227D-208R), assuming they won all Democratic-held
seats. The fraud
model assumptions are assumed for all 62 districts. 

These are the 15 districts most likely for fraud:
AZ-1, CA-11, CO-4, CT-4,
FL-13, FL-24, IL-6, IL-10, KY-4,
NM-1, NC-8, OH-1, OH-6, OH-15, PA-8

The Democrats scored upsets in NH-2, PA-4, IA-2, KS-2, MN-1.
The GOP won upsets in FL-13, OH-1, OH-2, OH-15, IL-6, IL-10,
IL-13 CT-4,
PA-6.
					
The follwing table depicts the relationship between the number
of races
stolen from the Democrats and the percentage of votes
switched.

Switched
Votes% 0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11
Races	 0	5	9	15	16	19	22	23	27	30	34	36

Because of the Democratic landslide, the GOP needed to switch
approximately
11% of Democratic votes (1 in 9) to reduce a Democratic pickup
by 36 seats.
They needed to switch 17% of Democratic votes (1 in 6) to
reduce a 40-seat
Dem pickup. They could not overcome the Democratic tsunami; it
would have
been too obvious since the election was an unprecedented
blowout. The model
indicates that they stole about 16 seats, assuming the fraud
scenario. 

Uncounted and switched votes resulted in a 6% decrease in
Democratic
margin, reversing the vote share from 51.3D-48.7R to
48.7D-51.3R.

It looks like the vote-switching algorithm was similar to
2004. Kerry's
51-48 exit poll margin was almost exactly reversed in the
recorded vote
count.

UNDECIDED RACES:
• Ohio, 15th District: Rep. Deborah Pryce (news, bio, voting
record), a
member of the House Republican leadership, leads Democrat Mary
Jo Kilroy
race by 3,536 votes. Thousands of provisional ballots will be
counted
beginning Nov. 19 — a day later than normal in deference to
the Ohio
State-Michigan football game Nov. 18.

• New Mexico, 1st District: Republican Rep. Heather Wilson
(news, bio,
voting record) led Democrat Patricia Madrid by fewer than
1,500 votes out
of more than 200,000 cast, with about 3,700 ballots remaining
to be
qualified and tallied.

• North Carolina, 8th District: Rep. Robin Hayes (news, bio,
voting
record), a Republican, had a 449-vote lead over Democrat Larry
Kissell.
About 1,500 provisional ballots remained to be counted.

• Ohio, 2nd District: Rep. Jean Schmidt, a Republican who
called decorated
Vietnam veteran Rep. John Murtha (news, bio, voting record) a
coward, was
ahead of Democrat Victoria Wulsin by about 2,300 votes.
Counting
provisional and absentee ballots could take nearly two weeks.

• Connecticut, 2nd District: Democrat Joe Courtney led GOP
Rep. Rob Simmons
by just 66 votes. A recount is to be completed by Wednesday.

In Florida, a recount began Monday in the contest for the seat
Rep.
Katherine Harris (news, bio, voting record) gave up to make
her failed
Senate run. The Associated Press has declared a winner in that
race:
Republican Vern Buchanan, who leads Democrat Christine
Jennings by about
375 votes, or less than 0.02 percent.

• Washington, 8th District: GOP Rep. Dave Reichert led
Democrat Darcy
Burner by about 3,500 votes, but many ballots in this heavily
vote-by-mail
state remained to be counted.

7. May I assume these 62 races were exit polled by some organization?
If so were these exit polls done in a manner that would detect pollster problems (like selection bias) so that they could not be easily dismissed?

8. Thank you, Momcat
This has been several DUers' opinion since the election, the Dems would have totally wiped the floor with the Republicans without electoral fraud.

Quite a few responses were of the form, What fraud - have you any proof ? or If that's true why didn't the Republicans just 'press a button' and win it anyway ?

It looks like the model bears out the fraud hypothesis. Thanks again for the post and the links.

10. what's your definition of fraud?
the vote counting machines were intentionaly rigged to erase 1 in 9 democratic votes, etc?

fascinating work, the correlations are amazing. have you done 2004 breakdowns by state and congressional district? Can we pinpoint it down ot certain individuals that can be prosecuted?

It's still not decided. I believe Madrid won. I hope she keeps fighting.

17. It all makes sense now!
I also believe it's this kind of information that Carville is trying to blame on Dean rather than on the thieves.
In any case, it needs to be known and bills passed ASAP to prevent repeats.

22. Now, perhaps, anyone who doubted, will believe that the
Edited on Wed Nov-15-06 07:29 PM by KCabotDullesMarxIII
percentage figures for Bush in the polls purported to be in the 30s, was sheer fantasy. If the figures they quoted had been in the low 20s, it would have stretched credulity.

It was common sense and the basic understanding that there really is a limit to the capacity for folly of the public at large, not alas, mathematics that told us as much. Heck, the very the idea that people would be daft enough to vote for Bush against Al Gore, after Clinton's legacy, absolutely beggared belief. The US public has been greatly maligned by the lying pundits - whose masters were smart enough to commit wholesale fraud to get their way. Because IT WAS THEIR TURN!!!

But knowing that wasn't worth a cracker, other than to preserve out belief and hope. The facts and figures provided by TIA, on the other hand, ought to be recognised by those in government for what they are: the building blocks upon which the whole Insurance industry is based. To mention just the most obvious.

24. Here's to all the people who turned out to vote, and got others to.
Karl was all set to call a panel of Republican operatives to examine why the polls were so wrong after the R's defied probability to pull out a win.

Here's to all the people who've worked so hard on election fraud, and here's to you, TIA.
