I'm watching Dr Shiva the MIT phD, and he and others are talking about Michigan vote fraud.

I'd love to say that every guy who takes our side is spot on.

I don't see it.

I didn't watch the whole thing, but I did watch 40 minutes of it.

They seem to assume fraud and they seem to talk in terms of "taking away the votes from Trump" because, in theory, the computers are capable of doing so.

Core to this is the assumption that a person who is NOT voting straight party ticket is exactly the same type of person as the person who IS voting straight party ticket.

If you were to ask me to choose whether voters who do choose straight party ticket are the same or different than voters who choose individual races, I'd say different.

A person who loves GOP is going to vote straight ticket. Why bother checking every single box?

And Shiva talking about how Trump did "good" in Detroit because he got more votes than the 5% straight part GOP, getting a total of 25% in those precincts, is bullshit. 25% is not at all "GOOD". He got votes from people who were not voting straight party GOP, and there were very few straight party GOP in Detroit.

And then you find Macomb Country, and you find that there were instances where GOP straight party ticket goes 80% in some precincts. The people who love GOP are voting for Trump that way. If someone is taking the time not to vote Trump via straight party GOP, maybe those are GOP who just don't like Trump and the GOP quite as unconditionally.

Maybe, you have ideologues who are voting straight party ticket, and the people who don't vote straight party ticket have mixed feelings, or are moderates, or are Karens, or generally young single white females unmarried, or whatever.

These guys, Shiva and the others, are making assumptions about voter behavior. This is not Benford's Law here, this isn't about 1st digit, 2nd digit. This is them pulling a theory out of their ass that Trump should get as many votes, same percentage of votes, straight party voters, as the number of votes of people who are voting

on individual races. And that core theory seems wrong to me.

Can you vote for more GOP by individually picking GOP candidates? No. That's IMPOSSIBLE. You can vote for the same amount of GOP and you can vote for FEWER GOP, but you can't vote for more GOP by picking individually.

I'd put this particular theory somewhere down the list of good theories that can't be demolished quickly by someone like me who can just figure out the problem with it when watching it for the first time.
