Another explanation is that people working in government bodies in Russia (including state-funded education, healthcare and military institutions) make up some 30 million, so United Russia gets a huge number of votes just from them. Moscow has a large army of bureaucrats, you know.
And you know how they voted because?..

#43Why would anyone think that this statistical analysis shows evidence of a fraud? One chart shows that there is no normal distribution for votes given to United Russia (UR) The other chart shows that percent of people who voted for UR grows when the number of people that voted grows Let's think, which facts have influenced the results of voting: А) External factors: 1) Votes falsification B) Personal factors: 2) Autho…
I don't agree with the downvotes, and you have a point in that statistics cannot prove fraud. But these numbers do provide strong evidence for irregularities. > - rregions with large number of milinary men Huh? Does that include Moscow with what was it, 47% for UR? Can you name ONE region where concerted (fair) voting by the military can have a significant impact on the outcome? In any case, your suggestions do not e…
The ruling class of HN can be wrong?!? Say it isn't so!

Re: Russian legislative elections 2011 - statistical evidence of vote fraud
#47Interesting. Did you look at the polling stations at the irregular spikes? What is their number, rather than percentage. The absoulte number (even better, the number of voters in them) would indicate what effect hey had on the overall results. Also what regions are they in? In some very sparsely populated regions, like North Siberia, where "mobile" polling stations are used, the number of voters would be very small,…
The post points out that the station-by-turnout data are weighted, so the "very small precinct" argument does not fly (and why would all the very small stations all have numbers of votes that are multiples of five)? In addition, why don't we get anything remotely like the same effect in Sweden, where large parts of the country are also very sparsely populated,? Polling stations abroad are counted in the same way as p…

In my city, there was only one candidate (running for judge) in the last election who didn't run on the democratic line. Another candidate was running on the Democrat, Republican, Conservative, Working Family and Independence party lines.
