Findings · 20
Hypotheses extracted from the transcript, ranked by analyst confidence.
- 01
A highly reputable pollster's (Ann Selzer) pre-election poll for Iowa significantly overstated support for a Democratic candidate (Kamala Harris) and was subsequently deemed 'fake news' and led to lawsuits.
-
"leading up to the election she had claimed somewhere around a 3% lead for Harris."
-
"for this election specifically, I think she was 16 points off from the actual results."
-
"And after the election, Trump, President Trump, filed a lawsuit in December um about her poll being fake news."
-
"another group did the same and they actually did specifically quote that her polls delivered the dictionary definition fake news."
-
"she did get sued twice because of her polls."
-
"I do find this interesting that she was very wrong in her polls from the election results and then she was sued because of those polls."
-
- 02
Election data in Iowa exhibits anomalous vote patterns, particularly in higher turnout precincts, which are presented as indicative of potential digital ballot stuffing.
-
"immediately we notice a concern. We do see a interesting shift in precincts."
-
"after 40 50% turnout, it looks like we begin to see one candidates growing in the amount of votes they had across all of these higher turnout precincts and the other candidate is decreasing in the amount of votes."
-
"this is obviously an anomaly and and so according to the analysis of Sergey Schulen Roman UD doat's work um the heat maps of Peter Clemik it is a concern"
-
"our concern is since we use digital systems, could you digitally ballot stuff and add in a bunch of votes um causing turnout to rise across these precincts and causing the amount of votes for one candidate to grow?"
-
"to see this across all precincts is a concern."
-
- 03
In the analyzed Iowa counties (Johnson, De Moine, Polk), Democratic candidates significantly lose ground to Republicans in precincts with higher voter turnout, particularly on election day.
-
"upward trend for the Republicans across all of these precincts. Precincts with a higher turnout versus precincts with a lower turnout."
-
"the Republican candidate is growing in the amount of votes they're getting significantly across places of higher turnout."
-
"the Republicans begin to win at those higher um turnout precincts."
-
"places of low turnout versus places of high turnout, the Democrats begin to significantly lose and then the Republicans begin to significantly grow."
-
"Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
- 04
The observed uniform shift towards Republican candidates in Iowa, especially in higher turnout and larger precincts, is an abnormal pattern that does not reflect typical human voting behavior, raising concerns about election integrity.
-
"downward shaping trend and that upward to the right shape as well."
-
"this looks more like what a Russian elections are concerned about up and to the right"
-
"We're seeing that abnormal trend where as in precincts where there were more votes cast, Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
"It's not just a few precincts. It's all of the precincts. And the thing is to change all of the precincts so uniformly would be very very difficult naturally. This isn't reflective of human voting behavior as we showed you before with a more normal election."
-
"we're not seeing any rapid growth or decrease as turnout increases. But then in election day, which is uh always very interesting, we do see that concern even in Erie County, even even in other places."
-
- 05
In Iowa, particularly in Johnson and De Moine counties, election data shows an abnormal trend where Democrats significantly lose votes and Republicans significantly gain votes in precincts with higher voter turnout, even in larger precincts.
-
"upward trend for the Republicans across all of these precincts. Precincts with a higher turnout versus precincts with a lower turnout."
-
"the Republican candidate is growing in the amount of votes they're getting significantly across places of higher turnout."
-
"the Republicans begin to win at those higher um turnout precincts."
-
"places of low turnout versus places of high turnout, the Democrats begin to significantly lose and then the Republicans begin to significantly grow."
-
"Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
- 06
Election day voting patterns in Iowa's Pulk and Scott Counties exhibit an anomalous 'comet trail' or 'up and to the right' pattern, where one candidate's vote share increases significantly with higher turnout, which the analysts associate with potential election manipulation rather than normal voting behavior.
-
"And we do see that anomaly and that concern here in Pulk County."
-
"in the case then of election day, we see a sign we see a comet trail up and to the right for these precincts."
-
"So, we're seeing that in all of these precincts, as turnout had increased, in places of higher turnout, we begin to see this up and to the right pattern."
-
"their election days do show the anomalies that are seen in other analysis."
-
- 07
The analysis of Iowa's Polk County early and mail-in voting data does not show noticeable anomalous trends where one candidate's vote share significantly increases with higher turnout, which could indicate issues like ballot stuffing. This finding applies to the Democratic candidate (Harris, used as an example) as well.
-
"And in this case, we're not really seeing a lot of precincts all changing in a set way."
-
"But in this case, we don't see a very noticeable trend where any um one candidate is growing in the amount of votes they're getting across precincts at lower to higher turnout."
-
"And in this case, we don't see any noticeable trends."
-
- 08
The integrity of recent election outcomes is compromised by alleged 'anomalies' and 'potential vote manipulation,' necessitating audits to determine if elections were 'free and fair' and if the American people are truly represented.
-
"we want audits um for these anomalies if they are caused by potential vote manipulation that can truly only ever be determined by doing an audit."
-
"Past elections need to be free and fair. And if they weren't, we need to figure that out and determine that."
-
"if our elections are not free and fair going forward, the American people are not being represented. The government doesn't represent the American people. The Constitution has been usurped in that case."
-
- 09
The legitimacy of election outcomes, and by extension the perceived performance of political parties like the Democratic Party, is called into question due to alleged 'anomalies' and the potential for 'vote manipulation' in past elections.
-
"we want audits um for these anomalies if they are caused by potential vote manipulation that can truly only ever be determined by doing an audit."
-
"Past elections need to be free and fair. And if they weren't, we need to figure that out and determine that."
-
"if our elections are not free and fair going forward, the American people are not being represented. The government doesn't represent the American people. The Constitution has been usurped in that case"

The observed uniform shift in votes towards Republicans across all precincts, including larger ones, particularly in higher turnout areas, is considered abnormal and not reflective of typical human voting behavior.
-
"this looks more like what a Russian elections are concerned about up and to the right"
-
"what we're seeing is the opposite. We're seeing that abnormal trend where as in precincts where there were more votes cast, Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
"to change all of the precincts so uniformly would be very very difficult naturally. This isn't reflective of human voting behavior as we showed you before with a more normal election."
-
- 11
The observed voting patterns, where Republicans gain and Democrats lose in larger, more urban precincts, are abnormal and contrary to expected human voting behavior, suggesting potential irregularities.
-
"if your population is more rural in nature, then would you not expect to see if anything the party that is more city-based, that is more urban, that lives um on top of each other, you would expect to see places with more people um generally shifting for the Democrats in this case. But what we're seeing is the opposite. We're seeing that abnormal trend where as in precincts where there were more votes cast, Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
"This isn't reflective of human voting behavior as we showed you before with a more normal election."
-

Democrats experience significant losses in precincts with higher voter turnout, while Republicans simultaneously gain.
-
"places of low turnout versus places of high turnout, the Democrats begin to significantly lose and then the Republicans begin to significantly grow."
-
- 13
In Iowa's Pulk County, Democrats initially held a higher percentage of votes in precincts characterized by lower voter turnout.
-
"in the beginning the Democrats are sitting at a higher percentage of the votes across these precincts at a lower turnout."
-
- 14
Specifically, in Iowa's Scott County (and implied for Pulk County), election day results show a 'downward trend for the Democrats' in vote share as turnout increases, while Republicans exhibit an 'upward trend,' which is presented as a 'concern' and an anomalous pattern indicative of potential manipulation.
-
"Election day, we get the the same concern of a downward trend for the Democrats and an upward trend for the Republicans across all of these precincts. Precincts with a higher turnout versus precincts with a"

Contrary to typical expectations where urban, high-population areas would shift towards Democrats, the observed trend in Iowa shows Republicans (specifically Trump) gaining votes and overtaking Democrats even in larger, more populous precincts.
-
"you would expect to see places with more people um generally shifting for the Democrats in this case. But what we're seeing is the opposite. We're seeing that abnormal trend where as in precincts where there were more votes cast, Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."
-
- 16
The Democratic Party is experiencing significant vote loss in precincts with higher voter turnout, while the Republican Party is significantly gaining in these same precincts.
-
"places of low turnout versus places of high turnout, the Democrats begin to significantly lose and then the Republicans begin to significantly grow."
-
- 17
The Democratic Party is losing ground in larger precincts, including those typically associated with urban or city-based populations, which is described as an 'abnormal trend' contrary to expected demographic voting patterns.
-
"if your population is more rural in nature, then would you not expect to see if anything the party that is more city-based, that is more urban, that lives um on top of each other, you would expect to see places with more people um generally shifting for the Democrats in this case. But what we're seeing is the opposite. We're seeing that abnormal trend where as in precincts where there were more votes cast, Trump was getting and continues to gain in the amount of votes he's getting until he begins to overtake the Democrats even in the larger precincts."

The observed uniform shift in votes away from Democrats and towards Republicans across all precincts is unnatural and not reflective of normal human voting behavior, implying a problematic or non-organic electoral outcome.
-
"And the thing is to change all of the precincts so uniformly would be very very difficult naturally. This isn't reflective of human voting behavior as we showed you before with a more normal election."
-
- 19
Democrats are significantly losing votes in precincts with higher voter turnout, while Republicans are gaining.
-
"places of low turnout versus places of high turnout, the Democrats begin to significantly lose and then the Republicans begin to significantly grow."
-
- 20
The integrity of election results in larger, high-turnout urban areas (which are often Democratic strongholds) is questionable due to observed 'anomalies' and inadequate auditing practices, suggesting potential manipulation that could impact Democratic electoral outcomes.
-
"The concern is if you're doing a small percentage um how are they actually looking at the votes? So, if you don't audit 100% of a precinct or such, you may have a hard time actually catching um sign significant manipulation."
-
"And they're not highlighting the larger places where turnout is higher and there are more people voting in in bigger cities. And that's where we're seeing a lot of the anomalies is bigger cities."
