One person's testimony isn't statistics. I know you don't know shit about shit but this is bad for even you.
If this is statistics mind telling me the standard deviation?
Standard deviation isn't useful. We need a p-value, or the chance that being an ILLEGAL SPIC is not correlated with VOTER FRAUD.
Code
SO... Mr ICE deported 1,000 immigrants and 100 of them committed voter fraud.
We are trying to prove that being an ILLEGAL SPIC is not correlated with VOTER FRAUD.
Lets set the rate that would be observed if non-correlation was true to a 2% rate of voter fraud, to be conservative (far higher than a control population would have, but will still prove our point if the null hypothesis is proven wrong).
The chance that a 10% rate of voter fraud would be seen in a sample of 10 when 2% is the real occurrence rate is exactly 19.6%.
Increase that to 1,000 sample size and the p-value comes to a freakishly infinitesimal number...
far greater than 6 sigma... 1.027E-28

Not a statistical argument.
