North Carolina & Iowa & Nevada people check for same fraud pattern demonst
demonstrated in New Mexico, Ohio, and Florida. There it occurred in both the Presidential races and U.S. Senate races. Vote machines were set to default to Bush or minor party candidates(mostly Bush) and Bush gets undervotes plus the ones that don't successfully succeed in getting the machine to register the Dem vote. This is documented with a lot of EIRS cases in New Mexico, Ohio, and Florida.
What about the other swing states? Did this pattern of registering repub vote when dem button punched show up in those states as well.
See other current threads on New Mexico fraud and touchscreen fraud.

11. Have people from Iowa or North Carolina checked on this; easy way to win
Have people from Iowa checked the Iowa EIRS(incident reports) data for this pattern. Did machines default to Bush. Register Bush when Kerry punched. If so Kerry won Iowa and you should contest it. This fraud type is well documented. Lots of solid documentation from New Mexico and Ohio.

Same for North Carolina Senate race. Did the pattern exist there.
defaulting to the Repub candidate? If so check this out.

2. Nevada: Non-Vote comparison President vs. Senate races.
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 12:22 PM by L. Coyote
Here are some summary statistics and a graph for Nevada races.
Summary		
% Non-Votes President Senate

average 0.979 4.412

stdev 0.266 0.878



Counties are sorted alphabetically from left to right. First valley in Presidential non-vote is Clarke County (Las Vegas) with 65.74% of votes. That non-vote percent is 0.659, compared to 4.272 % for the Senate race in the same county.

To obtain the raw data download the spreadsheet with the state results for President and Senate, plus some initial analysis.

Comparing electronic and other voting methods and non-voting percentages by type, Ohio provides a good example.



In Ohio, the very low standard deviation for E-Vote really stands out.

Follow this link to download spreadsheets with state results and some analysis for Ohio, New Mexico, Iowa, South Dakota, and Florida.

It is a well-known fact that spoilage with punch cards is high. Was there targeted placement of E-voting equipment to ensure less spoilage in Republican strongholds?

3. Nice work
The evidence continues to pile up. It looks like defaulting the machines to Bush was one of the standardized fraud methods. Its a gorgeous plan, when you think of it, because it provides a degree plausible deniability.

10. Nevada doesn't need paper trails to document this! Contest the election!
Look at the Nevada EIRS data to confirm this pattern. If it exist you have documentation Kerry won Nevada. Should be easy to do.
Anyone there seeing this? Understand how to do it??

Voteprotect.org (or .ocm)

collect the EIRS data and look for the pattern
machines defaultin to Bush; register Bush when try to punch Kerry, etc.

4. Florida: Comparison President vs. Senate Races by Voting Machine Type
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 03:26 PM by L. Coyote
There are also very discernable correlations with voting machine types in Florida. Here are several:



These Pearson correlations use the percentage difference for Bush and Martinez (US Senate) and compare them to: percentage of voters in counties, percentage of turnout, percentages of party registrations, and percentage of votes for the candidates. The raw data is county based, not-weighted for county populations.

The next graph makes the same analyses, except for the Bush 2000 - 2004 vote percentage changes. They make a good comparison. With a stacked bar chart, the overall state pattern shows, but bear in mind that negative and positive values cancel each other out and reduce overall correlations.



Several variables in addition to county populations need to be considered. Where are the E-Touch and Op-Scan machines located? Florida is a complex situation with the small Dixiecrat counties and large liberal counties skewing analysis when using county data. Nonetheless, some variables, such as turnout, "should be" independent of these factors. Here we still see a very discernable difference by voting machines. As has been said, "Something's fishy in Florida."



And it ain't the fish.
