I know my math pretty well. It’s my graduate degree and profession.
BTW, the numbers I was referring to were for the entire state, not for just one county.
Ravi/LS like to talk about about the county that is the equivalent of, say, Detroit, Philadelphia, or Seattle. In most states, almost all Ds come from one big blue pimple. If that pimple’s reduced in size significantly, then, yes, that portends to a big R victory.
There is nothing bad that can be spun out of these numbers, unless you wish to make a case of how the Independents might trend D or if a large percentage of those Republicans are from Operation Chaos.
That's why engineers are allowed in the lab and the mathematicians are kept in their offices.
The theory is engrossing for the mathematician, but the application is irrelevant!
Lighten up, Francis.
