And in fact Barack Obama did quite well.

The votes will be theirs!

He is great. Which is why he's got my vote.

Some states will do it similar to the democrats where the delegates represent the candidates proportion to the votes they have

So you could have candidate D, candidate E, candidate F and let's say let me do the percentages slightly different for fun

It applies to coin flips and many of the other examples we discussed before.

If your candidate wins in California, they get all 55 of the state's electoral votes.

I'm good at bookkeeping.

So lets say there is a conservative candidate, and he or she gets huge majorities in the States they win 80 in Texas, they get 80 in Mississippi, they get 80 in Oklahoma.

But then the rain stopped, people went to vote.

For the last 30 years, political scientists have observed that there is a constant decline in electoral turnout, and the people who are least interested to vote are the people whom you expect are going to gain most out of voting.

You might say OK, that's the probably of getting exactly 1 times the probability of getting 2 out of 3 plus the probability of getting 3 out of 3.

The confidence interval of 57 63 means we are fairly confident that given our current sample, election day will give party A an outcome within this range.

It says a lot about her peers who elected her.

So let's say in Florida that candidate, I should say, gets 49 of the vote.

And I could write that like this

Let's say the same thing happens in California, that candidate got 49 of the vote, the opponent, say, gets 51 of the vote.

So this is plus the probability of getting, of getting a cube.

Now you could imagine the other kind of unfair thing here other than the popular vote versus the you know, the electoral college vote, is it, you can imagine it makes some states better represented than others.

Similarly for tails, if you took a die

What is the probability of getting a, as my son would say lellow,

Mr. Bush had slightly more votes than Mr. Gore.

So isolation refers to the notion that no transaction can interfere with another's.

For the first time, they are free to cast their vote alongside whites.

That's what probability of getting 5 out of 5 heads given that I picked a normal coin out.

And it wasn't long before other sites like Fark and Boing Boing and the rest of the Internet started saying, We love Splashy Pants!

To illustrate this, suppose party A go 724,000 votes and party B got 181,000 votes.

Two for Russell.

Three, Linus. Two, Russell.

Eightythree, Russell. Eightytwo, Linus.

Eightythree, Russell. Eightythree, Linus.

This represents the set of all the cubes.

Eightytwo, Russell. Eightytwo, Linus.

If this is the case, the very large margins secured by the losing candidate in the other states would add up to over 50 of the ballots cast nationally.

Let's say you're a voter in California, a state with 55 electoral votes.

And then, what's the probability that I get a let's call it a 2s two sided coin.

That makes it 84, Linus, and 83, Russell.

The tally is 140 against, 396 for.

I repeated this experiment 1000 times and that means

It starts out and there's a chance node.

He is seriously competing with her in the polling score.

Let's add a Where clause where votes are gt 10.

What is interesting here is it's a winner take all in every state, except for Nebraska and Maine.

Well, it's not precisely a majority, but you have the most votes.

Hilltopers 6, Wombats 84.
