Review context
These calculated indicators are prompts for checking source data, reporting grain, denominators, and local context. They are not evidence or findings of fraud, misconduct, or an incorrect election outcome.
Average President-vs-down-ballot difference crossed threshold: DEM 2.30%, REP -1.39%.
The average gap between presidential votes and same-party down-ballot votes is large enough to review. Split-ticket voting can explain some gap; this flag identifies areas needing supporting records.
Vote-share correlation crossed threshold: Trump r=-0.093, Harris r=0.744.
Bigger local reporting-unit vote totals move with candidate vote share strongly enough to pass the native review threshold. This is an advisory review flag, not proof of tampering.

Official Illinois State Board of Elections CSV exports. Presidential rows are aggregated from Illinois election jurisdictions to Census counties for certified county results; separate city election authorities are rolled into their parent counties. Advisory review rows join President to U.S. House only where the same source jurisdiction/precinct key is unambiguous and the House race has both Democratic and Republican candidate votes.Open sourceU.S. Election Assistance Commission
National EAC fallback turnout rows. Prefer state election office denominator artifacts when available; keep fallback caveats visible in the app.Open sourceVerified Voting
Verified Voting Verifier data is jurisdiction-level election-administration context. Most rows are counties, but some states report state-level rows and some county rows can summarize mixed tabulation, accessible-device, absentee, poll-book, or other configurations. Treat it as source-linked context, not proof every precinct in a county used one identical setup, and not a turnout or vote-result source.Open source
