What's up with people saying the results of the Venezuelan elections are "statically impossible"?
What's up with people saying the results of the Venezuelan elections are "statically impossible"?
I'm not good at math, but people keep passing this chart around in 
But I keep seeing people in the comments debating whether this is actually "impossible" or not, using stats terms I'm not familiar with. Also idk the source of this graph so maybe it's bs.

No. That wouldn't explain why exactly

Five.
Votes are always natural numbers. There are no fractions of votes.
For 10,058,774 votes, you need 10-⁷ accuracy. That way you can see the smallest number of votes: i.e. one vote
Dividing the vote by 7 orders of magnitude is the same as subdividing each percentage point to 5
As I have already shown in this thread, the match is exact to the nearest vote. It couldn't be closer without chopping voters into bits.
Ask yourself this question: if there are 10,058,774 votes, how many votes is 51.2% of that? No fractions allowed.

Honestly if you don't get it by now I can't explain any more
