We used n = 226 on the fourth digit, the previous n value being used was at 1384, the number of active precincts (overall), where n =226 for the active precints with 4 or 5 digits tallies.
That being said, it's still a suspect number. and the first digit at chi = 26, at p = 0.0008still constitutes legal proof of fraud, which coincides that the respective n = 350 for Biden's count on the 4th digit (that means Trump has 100 less precincts than Biden where he received a 4 or 5 digit tally).
The only thing saving Democrats is the lower n value for Trump vs Biden. Adjust those expected and total counts proportionally from n = 226 to n = 350 and tell me what the chi value is.
And Chi = 9.84 is an insane number on the fourth digit, Chi = 9.7 on the second digit is even worse since n = 1367.
If the proportion of 4th digit counts remains the same (observed vs expected) at n = 1384 (number of active precincts), you get a 400+ chi.
You are the one that pointed it out though. gj.
This is why we DISCUSS these things, even if its in court.
That being said, I can't go back and edit (time expiration), but I edited on the original messageboard I posted on.
What are we comparing these chi^2 values to? ... is it a "suspect number" or "legal proof"? ... have you calculated the other 49 States and found much lower values? ...
I ask again: What log bases are you using for the first and second digits and why are you using these bases? ...
Not sure why you're asking about higher n values ... if we raise these number proportionally, then our chi^2 value will increase by the same proportion ... for n = 226 to n = 350, we multiply all the data by 1.55 ... ( O x 1.55 - E x 1.55 )^2 / E x 1.55 --> ( 1.55 ( O - E ))^2 / E x 1.55 --> 1.55^2/1.55 x ( O - E )^2 / E --> 1.55 x "chi^2" ... doing the summation yields 15.25, as expected ... and is meaningless in this discussion ... we know chi^2 = 9.84 ... what you're asking is statistical gymnastics and bears no relevance to the actual data ... I don't know of any court that would allow this as evidence ...
I ask again: Are we trying to prove The Donald is cheating in NC? ... the chi^2 data is unsigned, it doesn't say which side is benefiting ...
Benford test cannot ascertain which party (or parties) are cheating, it simply says the results are fabricated.
It's not meaningless with higher n values, higher n values demands a stricter conformance.
If you had n = 1 billion, then there should be 100 million of each digit (3rd and 4th digits) with no more than +/- 10,000 spread (a margin of error, by 3rd standard deviation, of 0.01%), because the p-value would approach 0.
If n = 100, and there are 16 sevens in the 4th digit, it's not a big deal, and insufficient for investigation.
If n = 1000, and there are 160 sevens in the 4th digit, it's weird, and worth investigating.
If n = 10,000 and there are 1600 sevens in the 4th digit, it's absolute fraud.
If n = 100,000 and there are 16000 sevens in the 4th digit, the mother fucker should be hung.
As n increases linearly, p decreases exponentially.
