If we administer IQ tests some statistically significant portion of the population, we will plot enough statistics at some point to establish
the familiar "bell curve". If we plot voter registration rates or voter
participation rates for every county and every precinct in the U.S. for
this last primary, we will establish a similar "bell curve". If one county
or a precinct shows much higher or much lower registration rates...then
that county or precinct is statistically abnormal in comparison to the rest of that bell curve. | |
