Geographical explanation might not be as watertight after all...

Reddit user brfox has started his blog on election statistics and did some analysis taking the geographic distribution of states into account. It seems that there is still a Diebold effect.

Meanwhile a column at Salon.com argues geography is the explanation.

We need to double- and triple-check check all this data carefully. If, after controlling for various parameters, we still have what looks like a statistical anomaly, we must get some expert opinion.
