Reply #23: "Election Fraud for Dummies"

[Valley Girl]

TIA,

I found this via a post on Brad Blog. Pretty overwhelming. I've seen some of these data before, so I don't need to be convinced. BUT, have you thought about writing a pamphlet or short book called something like "Election Fraud for Dummies"? This is my first post here, and I haven't followed DU that much, so forgive me if you've already done this, or someone else has.

I have to use statistics occasionally and I am reasonably "numerate" (also "literate") but I had a hard time taking in all of the analyses- brain started glazing over. So, this is not the kind of stuff someone is likely to attempt to understand in any depth unless they have a knack for numbers and statistics, and is predisposed to believe the conclusion.

Apart from any other motives behind the lack of MSM coverage of election fraud, is it possible that most reporters are simply not numerate enough to "get it"? I wouldn't be surprised, considering that the average store clerk wouldn't be able to give correct change unless the register told them what to dole out. Lampley obviously has enough odds-making experience to see the woods for the trees, but he's rare.

Hence the idea "fraud for Dummies"-- choose a few key sets of poll numbers, and explain these data step by step in a way that any dummy could understand? So that it couldn't be ignored, even by the casual reader? Something to hand out to reporters, congressmen, etc. etc.

Thanks for you hard work.
