TimeSeries Distributions EQ
Executive Overview
This report is a supplemental data appendix to the report “2020 Presidential Election Startling Voting Spikes”
by Quinnell, Young, Cox, Davis, Blehar, Droz, and Anonymous. In the original report, we looked at vote
“Dumps.” We defined a Dump as being a 25,000+ vote differential between Presidential candidates,
received/recorded at one time.
This supplement displays the same data and analysis in a different form – specifically in a Gaussian or ”Bell
Curve” standard normal distribution form for all states. The data is from the Edison time-series set recovered
on November 25th, 2020.
These new visualizations uncovered additional findings regarding the time-series data. Findings of note
include:
A total of almost 4 million NEGATIVE VOTES occurred between election night (November 3 rd) and the
final Edison timestamp
1,006 of the 21,452 datapoints are NEGATIVE VOTES
Not all NEGATIVE VOTES are corrected – e.g. New York deleted 500k+ votes on November 8 th, never to
be recovered
Only two states – Hawaii and Delaware – lack NEGATIVE VOTES
Trump had the majority of time-series updates in his favor (6,208 data pairs) vs Biden (4,467 data pairs)
Biden averaged 577 votes per time-series update in his favor – the average is dominated by heavily by
multi-sigma dumps extremely outside the mean
7 states have a skewed tail in favor of Trump (meaning “Dumps” dominate in Trump’s favor)
38 states have a skewed tail in favor of Biden
The top 5 of Trump’s largest dumps in his favor are a result of NEGATIVE VOTES
The following sections are raw data summaries presented in histograms and quantization for the whole USA as
well as per state. Note some of these values and terms are intended for analysists with deeper math
specializations – for further explanation feel free to contact one of the authors of the initial report listed
above.
Skew is assumed as compared to the standard normal value of 0, while kurtosis is assumed as compared to the
standard normal of 3. The USA summary of both values is spoiled by a singular data pair from California to
the tune of 1.74 million votes in Biden’s favor in a single time-stamp. Each state’s skew and kurtosis values
are more reasonable comparisons to the standard.
