analyzing results from Tuesday's US elections
What can you tell me about plans to analyze data from this year's general election, especially to detect possible fraud?
I was wondering if there's any R packages with out-of-the-box functions for this sort of thing. Can you please let us know, if you find any.
I might be able to help with such an effort. I have NOT done much with election data, but I have developed tools for data analysis, including web scraping, and included them in R packages available on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) and GitHub.[1]
Do you have a URL for detailed election results? Or even better, a nice R-friendly CSV file... I recognize that the results aren't complete. And that such a file may need to be updated later. But that doesn't necessarily prevent modelling now.
