Question: Is voting preference associated with region?

1. Calculate observed and expected matrices Expected Count: City Suburb Rural Republicans 93.82 72.97 58.20 Democrats 97.16 75.57 60.27 Independents 25.02 19.46 15.52 216 168 134 Observed Count: City Suburb Rural Republicans 126 61 38 Democrats 71 93 69 Independents 19 14 27 216 168 134 Expected Percent: City Republicans 43.44% Democrats 44.98% Independents 11.58% 100% Observed Percent: City Republicans 58.3% Democrats 32.9% Independents 8.8% 100%

2. Subtract observed and expected matrices Observed - Expected: City Suburb Rural Republicans 32.18 -11.97 -20.20 Democrats -26.16 17.43 8.73 Independents -6.02 -5.46 11.48

3. Square the differences City Suburb Rural Republicans 1035.40 143.35 408.23 Democrats 684.26 303.89 76.14 Independents 36.23 29.81 131.76

4. Standardize: Divide the squared values by the expected values 11.04 7.04 1.45 5. Sum the matrix calculated chi-squared value: 43.81 1.96 4.02 1.53 7.01 1.26 8.49

6. Find the critical value from the chi-square table using 0.5 significance and degrees of freedom defin d.f.: (3-1)*(3-1) = 2*2 = 4

critical value from table:

9.49

7. Compare the chi squared value and the citical value to make conclusion

Since chi-squared value (43.81) is greater than critical value (9.49), the matrices are NOT the same (i.e. there IS a relationship between voting and reg So we reject the null hypothesis of no association. Null hypothesis: Voting preference and region are NOT associated Alternative hypothesis: Voting preference and region ARE associated
