A computational approach was developed based on the official data to address this. Through this analysis, one method estimated the number of manipulated votes to range between 140,000 and 200,000, while another approach estimated a broader range of 90,000 to 245,000 votes. Notably, both methods identified the most probable number of manipulated votes as 175,000, providing a strong mathematical basis to substantiate the claim of election falsification.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.01845v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.01845v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"statistical-and-mathematical-evidence-of","repo_url":"https://github.com/RocinantEL/Rigged-Elections-of-Georgia-2024","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
