Being a masochist, I have read most of the final Carter Center report on Venezuela and the recall referendum. I will not go through the agony of commenting on all of the things I disagree with, but I did find it a little too self-serving. However, there is one part that I definitely have to […]

On Mathematical Models of the Recall Vote and Fraud part XIII: Benford questions results once more
October 10, 2004Physicist Imre Mikoss presented his data on tests on the August 15th. recall vote and comparison to Benford’s law two weeks ago at the third Simon Bolivar University seminar. His presentation is now online. While Pericchi and Torres have done similar tests, Mykoss does a couple of very interesting things which are worth posting for […]

On Mathematical Models of the recall vote and fraud part XI: 3d. Simon Bolivar seminar with a very strong result.
September 25, 2004The 3d. Simon Bolivar Seminar on statistical analysis of the recall referendum took place last Thursday with two talks by Jose Huerta and Luis Raul Pericchi on studies that I have discussed here before and a third talk by Carenne Ludeña on looking at the results from a critical point of view. In some sense, […]

Seminar at Simon Bolivar University on the mathematics of the recall results: An Overview
September 9, 2004There was a seminar today at Simon Bolivar University (USB), the leading technical university in Venezuela, on mathematical studies of the recall vote. The event, which was also sponsored by Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV) was quite interesting. I was planning to write a full report, but unfortunately (for you) maybe fortunately (for me) I […]
