Statistics in Palm Beach
Wednesday, Nov 08, 2000
If you have any doubt as to the effects the irregular ballot in Palm Beach has on the returns in that county, check this out. It's a data visualization applet that shows without question that the results in Palm Beach are not only over 4 standard deviations out of the norm (literally odds of 15000 to 1 of it being an accurate tally), but that the number of votes mistakenly attributed to Buchanan is between 2300 and 2600.

This isn't going to be over with the recount, or any time soon... Think OJ, think Lewinsky, then think the first major test of the constitution this century, which may ultimately result in the elimination of the Electoral College.

It's living history, and it's only just beginning...
