Everybody’s focusing on the improbability of the 1-in-64 coin tosses; so far as I can tell nobody’s focusing on the improbability of 6 precincts being “too close to call”.
First off, how do these characters define “too close to call”? - I don’t know how Iowa does things, but it would seem that either someone has the most votes, or it’s a tie.
And with the number of people voting, 6 ties doesn’t seem real likely.
And if vote totals are integral numbers, and you don’t have 6 actual ties, what the flip constitutes “too close to call”?
63:1 for 6 consecutive flips of the ^^same coin^^ within a specified time frame and (ostensibly) a same location.
Did this beat the odds Hillary beat in her cattle futures profits?
Of course it can happen. It's just a 1 in 64 probability (6 consecutive winning flips of a coin).
Those were the good old days....
No. It doesn't matter if the flips are separated by 100 years, each on a different planet. it's the same odds: 1 in 64.
"You can' prove that!!".. "there is no evidence of that"
“What are the odds of her winning the first five and Bernie winning the sixth?”
ummm....100%
Same for the 7th, 8th, 9th etc.
Hillary can’t lose (remember her astonishing luck with cattle futures?)
“I didn’t do it...nobody saw me do it.....you can’t prove anything.”
My understanding is they happened individually in the place they decided they were tied. Even all in one place it would still be clustering, there’s just not enough at stake to monkey with the coin toss.
Are the 64 to 1 odds any greater than 59 precincts in Philadelphia voting 100% for Obama in 2012? Just wondering.
This is no more amazing than Democrats lining up at caucus precincts to transform themselves into Republican voters. Elections have become the stage for a lot of amazing events.
My gosg! Chelsea was a cute little girl. Who’d a thought?
It’s a hard life for Chelsea.
Hopefully she can move up from that $10 million starter home in Manhattan after Mom becomes POTUS.
Satan has a lot of power. Just sayin’.
Hillary didn’t win all the coin tosses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONP9oKpyjQ4
And 90 precincts haven’t released or have lost their votes.
what about character? why do you have to attack somebody on looks?
Based on looks, Rubio should win. Based on character, Cruz should win. Maybe you should look deeper than skin, if you can.
