Taught intro to hypothesis testing today in undergrad stats for the first time in a while and this activity is undefeated for giving the intuition for hypothesis testing: jse.amstat.org/v2n1/eckert..... Plus you can do it as a magic trick which makes it fun.

Don't buy the canard that this is about Charlie Kirk. Abusing state power to lean on corporate leaders and get Jimmy Kimmel off the air because he told jokes about the president and made him feel bad was always the plan.

Imagine asking people two questions -- whether each of these is a good or bad way to run a govt:

1) having a democratic political system

2) having a strong leader who does not have to bother with parliament and elections

What percent says *both* are good?

44%!

Great start to the WhoGov elite workshop with @seibertlukas.bsky.social discussing how transparency affects MPs' side jobs and @siggi-econ.bsky.social showing that Norwegian parties and voters do a good job at filtering out candidates with criminal backgrounds.

Why has women’s rise in politics been so slow even under PR?

Our new APSR paper [out today!] shows how “hidden majoritarianism” in proportional systems shapes women’s progression from entering lists to reaching top offices.

Norway votes in 11 days 🇳🇴

More than a century after PR was introduced, women still hold under half the seats. In Norway’s closed-list system, nomination order is decisive—women are projected to occupy ~44% of seats in 2025 (based on 2021 party seat shares across districts).

Hvis man skal begynne å «ta stemmer» fra parti så må man sjekke om direktemandat kan ryke. Blir fort komplisert med alle 19 kretsene. Generelt så tipper jeg at det er mye å gå dersom stemmer hentes fra AP (som jo ikke får utjevningsmandat uansett), og mindre hvis man ser på SV/R.

Utjevningsmandatene i Norge deles ut i runder til partiene som "mest fortjener det". Her er hvordan det så ut i 2021 (tror jeg, med forbehold om feil😅).

MDG ber velgere stemme taktisk for å passere sperregrensa (mdg.no/taktisk). Illustrasjonen 👇 er litt optimistisk, men viser en viktig diskontinuitet i valgsystemet. I 2021 ville 1720 flere stemmer til MDG gitt 4 ekstra mandater – tatt fra FrP (2), SV og H.

I think Elon Musk gets away with a lot of illegal stuff. Even with that as a backdrop, I’m reasonably confident he won’t get away with breaking Duverger’s law.
