Chapter 2 the STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE of PALM BEACH COUNTY
Chapter 2 THE STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF PALM BEACH COUNTY David Andrews Andrey Feuerverger Abstract This paper emphasizes certain issues and problems that arise when a statistical analysis must be undertaken on complex and evolving data, under tight constraints of time. In such circumstances, it typically is not possible to develop extensive or problem-specific methodology, yet an answer may be required almost immediately, and must be correct, defensible, understandable, and carry impact. It must also be able to withstand the test of comparison with analyses yet to come. We illustrate these points by presenting the background to, and an analysis of, the State of Florida results in the 7 November, 2000 U.S. Presidential elections with emphasis on Palm Beach County. The anal- ysis we discuss was carried out in the days immediately following that election. The statistical evidence strongly suggested that the use of the 'butterfly' ballot in Palm Beach County had resulted in a signifi- cant number of votes having been counted for presidential candidate Pat Buchanan which had not so been intended. The design of the 'butterfly' ballot suggests that many of these votes had likely been intended for the Democratic candidate A1 Gore. This confusion was sufficient to affect the overall outcome of the 2000 U.S. Presidential election, conferring the office to George W. Bush, and this result is statistically significant. 1. Mise en schne On the evening of Tuesday November 7, 2000, the United States of America, along with much of the world, found itself in a state of sus- pended animation as a consequence of an inconclusive outcome to the U.S. -

Herron1 and Daniel A. Smith2 Abstract In mid-2011, the Florida state legislature passed House Bill 1355 (HB 1355) and in so doing placed new regulations on community organizations that historically have helped eligible Floridians register to vote. Among the legal changes promulgated by this bill were new regulations on the operations of groups like the League of Women Voters and a new oath, warning of prison time and fines, that voter registration agents were required to sign. -
