Having completed the full first draft of my Victory Vision 2022 - 2024, I realized I had to go back and work on the data and the math. It's demanding work. Here's where my work has been focused.
2) I'll share the small problem I've been working to solve - again! - in a little bit. First, though, I have to heap further praise of Seth Keshel and his incredible contributions here at his amazing website:
3) I cannot too strongly emphasize the importance of checking Seth's website out, and bopping around there. Do just go and glance and leave, please. Start working to get to know the website and all the information it has so powerfully organized.
4) To give you a taste, I've taken four screenshots. The second is detail explode from Arizona's information. This is extraordinary information, as well presented as it gets.
Early Interlude: I have a Sunday morning coaching session coming up here in about 4 minutes. So, I'll have to leave you hanging for the rest of today's work, but I will be back in an hour or two and we'll pick up again, then.
5) I'm back again. In our interlude, some information just came in that I had to chart. I'm no fan of Real Clear Politics' method of averaging polls. But still, the two circles indicate when McAuliffe broke support and when Youngkin took the lead. Delicious!
6) As to outcome, I'll say it again. If the Republican Party is addressing #ElectionFraud, then there's no doubt we'll win here in Virginia. And much as I hate saying it, if we lose, we'll know why. It is sadly that simple.
7) Getting back to Keshel's analysis. I spent a good deal of time at the site, and playing with my calculator. Funny thing, I have not previously done much post-election analysis of numbers. My lack of calculation skills disadvantages me there. But still...
8) #ElectionFraud is so important a topic that I realize I have to learn. Allow me to share two learning steps that I require and which may be of help to some of you, too.
1) Keep working the problem till testing assures accuracy of solution.
2) Show your work including errors.
9) Following above rules, I started out with this meme, and I forgot to calculate to include the percentage by way of moving two decimals to the right, once your solution is found. I'll show you what I did, at first, below...
10) Very simply, I then did this:
42,918 / .027 = 1,589,556 votes in total.
I then guessed that might be the total number of votes in the 3 states listed, but that was completely wrong.
11) The % symbol adds to spaces to the right of the decimal. So, when removing the % symbol, we convert .027 into .00027. We redo the calculation:
42,918 / .00027 = 158,955,556
Voila! Those are numbers we can work with, yes?
Alas, there still remains a problem...
12) It helps to convert to a word problem.
What is two point seven percent of one hundred fifty eight million, nine hundred fifty five thousand, five hundred fifty six votes?
And let's do some equivalencies to round out our word problem.
13) Have you seen the remaining problem? Assuming not for those who haven't, speak these out loud:
.027 % = two point seven percent
158,955, 556 = 100% of the vote
42,918 votes = .00027
.00027 = 27 100ths of a percent
Take away 2 decimals and we do arrive again at .027
Ah but...
14) I don't know about you, but when I see .027%, I think 2.7 %. This is completely wrong, and my fault. The problem is in the conversion from percent into decimal fraction and then back into words both in thought and conversation.
15) Holy cow, I had to look it up again. Check this out!
0.00 027 is written in English as:
All lowercase letters, twenty-seven hundred-thousandths.
16) I'll roll right into the WHY, as in why all this matters so very much that it's worth the needles-in-your-eyes agony of decimals, fractions, percents, and word problems. But first, I'm going to try again to get it said cleanly.
17) Our 2020 POTUS election brought in 159 million votes. Of those, 27 hundred-thousandths' worth determined the outcome. 2.7 tenths of a percent, 42,918 votes, threw the election to Biden. And of those there remain thousands that cannot be justified.
18) Were the Democrats honest over this matter, it would be THEY who were clamoring most loudly for perfect audits and the cleanest vote trail possible. Their opposition to such audit places them outside the high ground we deserve as a nation, and as an entire world.
19) It is one of the great wisdom statements of my people that: You must fear the man who needs to share his pain with you. This wisdom has been shown in thousands of movies when the "bad" guy tells the "good" guy, "I need you to know how I feel. Now, you will feel my pain."
20) What is the line separating justice from revenge? We have been told that, "Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord." Vengeance is a divine prerogative. If in its execution blasphemy occurs, then surely revenge is a vice and not a virtue in the heart of man.
21) As I read biblical ethics, however, I do NOT hear the use of the word "alone," or "Mine, and Mine alone..." Thus we may certainly know that scripture meets out both justice and vengeance, divinely. I find that infinitely interesting, and pertinent.
22) Oh good Democrats. You do NOT want us to be the Party who needs you to know our pain. You do NOT want us to seek revenge, meeting your fraud with our own, and then some, so we may make you feel what we feel.
23) Rather, as Americans, as patriots from both Parties, we must come together over the truth. Is it true that 27 hundred-thousandths of the vote turned the election for Biden? Is that true, and from just 3 states? And where the provenance of the votes there are questionable?
24) If these are true statements then I boldly, passionately urge we MUST GET TO THE BOTTOM of this matter. We MUST NOT sweep these facts under the rug. It will be a further rending of the ties that bind us if we allow this wound to fester and run. We MUST heal this wound.
25) I further propose that #ElectionFraud is absolutely a mathematical game. I say that the skills of math, the core skills are mandatory here, and that I must improve upon my weaknesses over them. I pledge that I shall.
26) Here they are, and in proper sequence (I believe!):
27) A true historical anecdote. Leonardo Da Vinci rebelled against his math studies in youth. At age 46, he met a priest named Luca Pacioli, know now as the father of double-entry accounting. Pacioli needed Da Vinci's illustrations for a math book. Da Vinci chose to barter.
28) Rather than be paid in cash, he requested that Pacioli become his teacher, filling in for his youthful rebellion. He had Pacioli teach him the tables for Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division. I don't know who was happier with the arrangement.
29) I can tell you that when, at age 46 I discovered this story I found tremendous solace in it. I don't image 15 years later I should still take any solace, but I still do. So it goes, right? In America today we must learn and master the math of #ElectionIntegrity.
30) Please join me. And if I can be one thing as a role model, please observe that I keep working the problem until the solution can be tested, and that I show my work, errors and all. While we're at this, let's play records for our children and never forget...#LetsGoBrandon.
As Michael Flynn is trending, I thought that I might not have to post the link to the so-typical hit piece that is causing the trend. But, alas, I have to. Here it is:
2) Quote 1: "They wanted to gather intelligence on senators, judges, congressmen, state reps, to move them towards the audit. The word 'move' was emphasized tremendously," Stern said. "What they wanted was to extort and to literally move people towards the audit with dirt."
3) Quote 2: "Stern was told to gather intelligence and to "accomplish the mission even if you have to use domestic terrorism."
"The severity and the danger of domestic terrorism in this group became very very apparent to me. It was extremely disturbing," Stern said."
Victory Vision: 2022 – 2024 and Beyond – Math Update
Who remembers that, in math class, we show our work and we find our errors? Before we turn to our Victory Vision work, we must do the same, right now. An error has been found!
We begin with the same reference, from electionfraud20.org, that we looked at earlier in this Victory Vision's Prelude this morning. You definitely want to get to know these people!
2) Funny thing, when I posted this morning's meme, I had some questions that their front page answers. Yeah, I hadn't gone there yet. I did just now, though, and snagged this screenshot. It's important.
3) I don't know about you, but I have to use my calculator when comprehending numbers such as the above. Here's what I just did. I divided 42,918/.027 which = 1,589,556. So, for now, I have to guess that that's the tally from the 3 states combined. Yes?
How large is the MAGA Movement? Of those who vote Republican, how many for Trump happily? How many with pinched noses? And in our last election, how many Americans actually voted for Trump, how many for Biden?
2) Consider the information above. I have not checked its facts. I welcome anyone to do so, and if they're wrong, please point out the error. For my purpose, for the moment, I accept the above statement as factual. Let's look at each.
3) "Many thousands of these ballots cannot be traced back to real, legal voters." Is that true or false? I accept it as true, but I welcome all challenge. That's worth noting. Truth is not established in the stating. It is established in the testing, in the challenge.
The Left. Unite The Left. That is what actually occurred here in Charlottesville those four years ago. And yet, they get to call it the Unite The Right Rally. I am disgusted to the point of nausea.
2) I can prove my point easily, readily. There is such a thing as the Skokie Principle. The actual event occurred in 1977. Nazis marched on Skokie Illinois, a Jewish community. There was a simple answer. Keep the Nazis and the Jews apart. Place a barrier between them.
3) As you hear about the trial against the Unite The Right, please know this. Here, in Charlottesville, the Unite The Left organizers were forced upon those defending the statues, with NO barrier whatsoever. You should find that interesting.
Trump might be right. Ever since 2016, I've been using that as my theoretical starting point again and again. One of the reasons I love it is that everyone seems to almost always start from the opposite perspective.
2) He has once again stolen the spotlight and is dominating with his new social media enterprise. It appeas that 100 million plus followers, and complete news cycle domination has a market value. How about that?
3) But, what about China? Not only is he doing business here - and who can follow all the details? - with a Chinese outfit, it's actually based in Wuhan. I'm laughing out loud over here. Based in Wuhan. Instantly, Wuhan is back in the news. How about that?
