The fact that electronic voting systems can be bought and sold in this way, while their inner workings remain a proprietary secret kept from the public, is a wild conflict of interest and a massive threat to the security and integrity of American elections.

An Election Truth Alliance poster with a graph that reads "This is not election denial. This is election integrity and auditing. This is a standard practice...If you can apply statistics to detect fraud in banking, if you can apply statistics to do safety and quality testing in engineering, why can’t we use statistics to flag non-human or abnormal voting behavior?"

Know the Difference poster from Election Truth Alliance that shows two sides. The first is Election Fraud the second is Voter Fraud. Election Fraud side reads: "large-scale illegal actions that intend to manipulate an election outcome. Broader in scope than voting fraud: more systemic / election wide. Could be undertaken by individuals or organized groups. Examples: Ballot stuffing (adding false ballots), Tampering with voting machines, Altering or discarding ballots, and changing election results. Next, Voter Fraud is Lone operators casting illegal ballots, isolated incidents that are ballot-specific, and undertaken by individual voters. Examples include casting multiple ballots in one election. Voting under an assumed identity, voting in the name of a deceased voter, and voting when/where ineligible to vote.

Our NEW Minnesota Special Report compared hand counts and machine counts in similarly sized precincts in the same congressional district.

We found hand counts appear statistically normal, while machine counts exhibit known patterns consistent with vote manipulation.

Election Truth Alliance Special Report:
Minnesota Hand Count vs. Machine Count
Key Findings
Hand counts appear to be statistically normal:
In precincts where votes were hand counted, voter turnout demonstrated no significant correlation with candidate vote shares, aligning with experts’ expectations for non-manipulated elections.
Machine counts reveal signs of vote manipulation:
In contrast, machine count precincts exhibited a strong positive correlation where higher turnout disproportionately increased Republican vote shares while decreasing Democratic vote shares.
Significant differences between vote count types:
When analyzing precincts of similar size in the same Congressional District, the Republican presidential and senatorial candidates both received significant differences in vote share when comparing hand count precincts (58% and 49%, respectfully)
and machine count precincts (64% and 57%).
These differences are statistically significant
and warrant further investigation.

If this is a dynamic that was happening at the precinct level (as opposed to county level), it would be an ecological fallacy to conduct the analysis at the more aggregated level of the county and claim that it is a robust test of a precinct-level potential phenomenon. (4/7)

For instance, falsified registrations have been used as a tool for undertaking election fraud in other countries, so registration data itself should not be exempt from scrutiny.

It's also unclear what "controlling for race" means in your summary sheet. (3/7)
