After online vote watchers questioned the surge vote for Biden only, Michigan state officials and news reports admitted this number increase was a mistake which should not have happened. The vote number is supposedly to have been corrected at the Shiawassee County level. This increased number of 138,339 was never reversed at the State summary level. Biden based on this increased number continued at the state level to have had accumulative 154,188 votes higher than Trump’s at the end. The 154,188 Biden votes should be reduced by 138,339 to be 15,849. Furthermore, another similar surge vote for Biden was reported happening at 3:50 am of 11/4/2020 for 49,779. The State has not shown the detailed listing of that vote combinations, 54,497 for Biden and 4,718 for Trump. This number needs to be investigated.

The model is an iteration from its 2018 U.S. Congressional model designed to predict the outcome of the election as if it were held today. The congressional model predicts the probability of a Republican (GOP) victory in individual House and Senate elections, as well as the number of aggregate seats expected to be won by each party (to predict partisan control of each chamber). The presidential model uses a similar framework to estimate vote shares and probabilities of victory for each major party candidate in each of the states.1 These estimates are then used to proxy electoral college predictions that determine who is elected as the next President of the United States. We provide a survey of features, feature engineering techniques, models, and ensembling techniques. We also provide some empirical results. Keywords: elections, political science, government, machine learning Media Summary We start with a data set of 200+ base features spanning economic indicators, political environment measures (both national and local), candidate traits, campaign finance reports, and engineered variables designed to draw context-specific information into the model.

  • Fiona Chen's Wisconsin Expert Report
    EXPERT REPORT THE NOVEMBER 4, 2020 VOTE NUMBER SURGE OF 193,720 INCONSISTENT WITH 1% VOTER POPULATION INCREASE: WISCONSIN VOTING COMPUTER SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE AUDITED OR AT LEAST THIS NUMBER INVESTIGATED By Fiona Chen, MPA, Ph.D., CPA, ABV, CFF, CITP Fiona Chen Consulting Company: A Tax & Forensic Accounting Firm 275 Stonegate Road, Ste M Algonquin, IL 60102 December 9, 2020 1 THE NOVEMBER 4, 2020 VOTE NUMBER SURGE OF 193,720 INCONSISTENT WITH 1% VOTER POPULATION INCREASE: WISCONSIN VOTING COMPUTER SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE AUDITED OR AT LEAST THIS NUMBER INVESTIGATED EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In Wisconsin, when the total vote increased 1%, from 12:59 am to 1:46 am PST on November 4, 2020, suddenly, Biden's vote increased 156,009 and Trump's vote increased 37,621. This total vote increase was 193,720. According to this one percent (1%) increase, the Wisconsin population or voter registration needed to have been 11,937,200. But the entire Wisconsin total population is only 5,820,000. The vote number changes were likely made directly in the computer system without the scan of individual vote ballots. Direct data change explains why the total number of vote increases was without the corresponding percentage change. Such direct computer data entry is confirmed in the State of Michigan. In Michigan, screenshot evidence identified a similar surge for Biden of 138,339 votes on 11/4/2020 about the same time as in Wisconsin. Various sources reported it as an entry “typo”. So far, no evidence shows how it was reversed at the macro level as claimed.

  • Sports and the Rhetorical Construction of the Citizen-Consumer
    THE SPORTS MALL OF AMERICA: SPORTS AND THE RHETORICAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE CITIZEN-CONSUMER Cory Hillman A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2012 Committee: Dr. Michael Butterworth, Advisor Dr. David Tobar Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Clayton Rosati Dr. Joshua Atkinson © 2010 Cory Hillman All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Michael Butterworth, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate from a rhetorical perspective how contemporary sports both reflect and influence a preferred definition of democracy that has been narrowly conflated with consumption in the cultural imaginary. I argue that the relationship between fans and sports has become mediated by rituals of consumption in order to affirm a particular identity, similar to the ways that citizenship in America has become defined by one’s ability to consume under conditions of neoliberal capitalism. In this study, I examine how new sports stadiums are architecturally designed to attract upper income fans through the mobilization of spectacle and surveillance-based strategies such as Fan Code of Conducts. I also investigate the “sports gaming culture” that addresses advertising in sports video games and fantasy sports participation that both reinforce the burgeoning commercialism of sports while normalizing capitalism’s worldview. I also explore the area of licensed merchandise which is often used to seduce fans into consuming the sports brand by speaking the terms of consumer capitalism often naturalized in fan’s expectations in their engagement with sports. Finally, I address potential strategies of resistance that rely on a reassessment of the value of sports in American culture, predicated upon restoring citizens’ faith in public institutions that would simultaneously reclaim control of the sporting landscape from commercial entities exploiting them for profit.

  • The Architect (PDF)
    UPCOMING PROMOTIONS THE ARCHITECT OF THE DETROIT TIGERS The blueprint that built Dave Dombrowski into one of baseball’s most respected executives. By Ben Chiswick On a sunny Wednesday afternoon in West Michigan, Dave Dombrowski sat behind home plate at Fifth Third Ballpark. The President, CEO and General Manager of the Detroit Tigers blended in among the scouts and radar guns on a day in which the rest of the ballpark was overtaken by 6,000 screaming kids enjoying a field trip. But Dombrowski was not there to complement a bag of salty peanuts with a cold beer, or egg on a buddy to take part in the dizzy bat race. The baseball veteran was there to work, evaluating the talent on the Tigers’ Class-A affiliate, the West Michigan Whitecaps. In his 33rd year in the industry of professional baseball, Dombrowski has learned a thing or two about player development. Though his current role requires his primary focus to be on the big league club in Detroit, he sets aside time every year to visit each of the Tigers’ full-season affili- ates. “Coming in here and watching is for my own firsthand experience and to get a feel for it,” explained Dombrowski. “I’ve heard reports on all of these guys but I like to get a feel myself. It’s amazing when you’ve seen a lot of guys play over the years, people stand out very quickly.” Dombrowski is kept well informed on all the happenings in the minor league system throughout the year. This primarily comes in the form of conversations with Director of Player Development Glenn Ezell and the many reports left by coaches, scouts and roving instructors that spend the season visiting the various minor league affiliates in the Detroit Tigers farm system.
