I see, I wounded your ego, by knowing more about the subject than you do. This is how I will remember you, David.

"The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of...

I am not, David. I was trying to have a conversation, despite you trying to wave away everything I was saying as " arguments of semantics".

David, I have a B.S. in mathematics with a focus on Statistics and I am nearly done with a M.S. in Statistics. I also teach introductory statistics here at the university; that is how I am putting...

It is a bit more involved than that, David. Statistics is what is known as a formal science, meaning it cannot conclude with the same certainty the validity of its observations. Unlike the natural...

Sampling for a poll is part of the statistical process and it is certainly one of the major elements you should be looking at when assessing an analysis. Don't just assume it was all reasonably done,...

Social Media is cancer. I use to think the Internet was this great thing, but lately, I have been wondering if we would just be better off without it.

This is why statistics should be taught in public schools. So that instead of alluding to possible "shenanigans" one could point them out. I don’t buy into these grand conspiracy theories involving...

What bothers me the most about the election is all the nonsense people spread about it on the Internet, especially our current President. The Internet has become a giant trash bin, where people just...

Hello, David.

Trump and his goons are having a real hard time finding this mass voter fraud and in fact, they are...

I don't find it likely he'll concede, or if he does it will only be some phony half step instead, he'll likely claim he was cheated until the day he dies.

I am not sure Trump supporters fully grasp how disliked their president is, and I think perhaps many views negative rhetoric about Trump as just your atypical condemnation from the opposition....

We have had that more than once in US history, so not really much of a "death knell". I think we need less focus on party politics and focus more on electing people who are intelligent, able, and...

It is not really a loss for the Republicans, as they are doing well in the Senate and the House. So, this really seems more like a push back on Trump than the Republican party itself.

Yep, that means they looked at the math, and considering the number of votes tallied and the outstanding votes yet to be counted, it is just simply not feasible for Trump to win PA, and without PA,...

I have been watching closely, extremely close for the past four years. This is just Trump and his goons doing the same BS song and dance they have done over and over. Nothing substantial is going...

Biden is the projected winner of PA, and without PA Trump has no path to victory.

There is certainly a lack of intelligence currently in our White House, as baby Trump throws a temper tantrum and attacks American Democracy with blatant lies.

Doesn't really change how stupid his statements were.

This is not really about "team red" vs. "team blue", I mean I am sure to some extent that is true, but really this is team anyone-else vs team Trump. Biden was not nominated for the Left, he was...

Trump still has a chance, but at this time it is looking like a Biden win. If Biden wins, it will be an interesting next few months and of course, there will be salty tears, but with Trump out of the...

I never said it did. His popularity is the reason the Reps clung so tightly to someone so clearly unqualified to be president.

Could that have something to do with the record turnout in this election?

I didn't see the emphasis put on the polls as you are suggesting. This year whenever a source I was viewing talked about polls they also mentioned that these polls may be misleading due to a number...

I had my fill of drugs in my early 20's and I lost the taste for them a long time ago. In other words, I grew up and would take a delicious stew over any such drugs any day of the week.

. . . than a bowl of slow-cooked stew from fresh veggies and freshly baked homemade bread?

Food is just always better when it is cooked from home, you get to control everything that goes in it.

The fact that so many people vote for Trump, has made me lose a lot of faith and respect for my fellow Americans.

It has much less to do with bias in the polls and more to do with the difficulty of trying to mathematize human behavior on such a large and diverse scale. I promise the people running for election...

Oh yeah, I remember that game. It was that one time at that one place.
