Reply to comment by Frogmarsh in [OC] best-fit lines, correlations: missing persons vs 'rural-urban' – 2020 election by terrykrohe

from "sources" comment below:

Missing persons and 'rural-urban' metrics: note that missing persons t-test indicates that data fluctuations are probably "random" in character. (t-test = 0.96)
The large difference of 'rural-urban' means (> 1 SD) for Rep and Dem states indicate that Rep and Dem states are different Sample populations. (un-reported t-test = 0.000126)
