INTRODUCTION
The intersection of astrophysics and political science has long been a subject that has garnered both intrigue and skepticism. In the realm of political analysis, numerous factors such as demographics, socio-economic indicators, and historical trends are typically held in high regard. However, the potential influence of celestial bodies on human behavior and decision-making has often been relegated to the fringes of academic discourse. Nonetheless, recent studies have suggested that there may be correlations between astronomical phenomena and political leanings, a notion that continues to provoke scholarly curiosity and public amusement alike.
In this paper, we endeavor to explore the peculiar link between the positions of Uranus and Saturn relative to the Earth and the voting patterns for the Democratic presidential candidate in the state of Delaware. While the undertaking may raise a few eyebrows and evoke quizzical reactions, our approach adheres to prudent statistical methodologies and rigorous analysis. By leveraging data from reputable sources such as Astropy, the MIT Election Data and Science Lab, and the Harvard Dataverse, we seek to provide a fresh perspective on the intricate interplay between the cosmic and the terrestrial.
Through an intricate fusion of astrological and political data, our research aims to unravel the mysterious dance of celestial bodies and its potential impact on the voting behavior of Delaware constituents. By shedding light on this unconventional nexus, we hope to inspire a thoughtful exploration of the manifold influences that shape human decision-making. Our findings may provide a whimsical lens through which to interpret the electoral dynamics in Delaware, while concurrently prompting contemplation of the broader cosmic forces that ostensibly exert influence on Earthly affairs.
The journey into the celestial and political mélange promises to be both enlightening and, dare I say, stellar in its revelatory potential. Join us as we venture into the cosmic sea of data and delve into the celestial tapestry that may, ever so surprisingly, weave into the fabric of political allegiances.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The inquiry into the relationship between celestial occurrences and political behavior has seen an upsurge in recent scholarly discourse, prompting a reevaluation of traditional paradigms within political science. Whilst the connection between celestial bodies and electoral activity may initially appear frivolous, a body of literature has emerged that suggests there may be more than mere cosmic coincidence at play. Smith et al. (2018) shed light on the potential impact of planetary alignments on human decision-making, while Doe (2015) presented a comprehensive analysis of astrological symbols and their implications for voter behavior. Jones (2017) further delved into the complex interplay of cosmic phenomena and political allegiances, offering a nuanced perspective on the topic at hand.
Moving beyond the conventional texts within the discipline, our investigation also draws on non-traditional sources such as "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan and "Astrophysics for People in a Hurry" by Neil deGrasse Tyson, which offer fresh insights into the intersection of celestial bodies and earthly affairs. Furthermore, delving into the realm of fiction, works such as "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "The Martian" by Andy Weir provide whimsical narratives that, although fictional, tease the imagination with cosmic conundrums that may be relevant to our scholarly pursuit.
In a rather unconventional twist, our literature review also incorporates insights gleaned from seemingly unrelated material, including overly long CVS receipts and cryptic fortune cookie messages, as we sought to capture the full spectrum of popular and unconventional thought on the intersection of the celestial and the terrestrial. While the relevance of such sources may appear tenuous at first glance, their inclusion serves to remind scholars of the importance of maintaining a sense of humor and intellectual curiosity in the pursuit of knowledge, even in the far reaches of academia.

RESULTS
Our analysis of the data revealed a striking correlation between the distance separating Uranus and Saturn and the Democratic presidential candidate's votes in Delaware. The correlation coefficient of 0.9059851 indicates a strong positive relationship between these seemingly disparate phenomena. This finding suggests that as the celestial bodies Uranus and Saturn gravitated closer or farther from each other, the votes for the Democratic candidate in Delaware exhibited a discernible pattern of change. With an r-squared value of 0.8208091, approximately 82.08% of the variability in Democratic votes can be explained by the distance between Uranus and Saturn. Remarkably, this suggests that a significant portion of the variance in political preferences within Delaware can be attributed to the cosmic dance of these distant planets.
The p-value of less than 0.01 further supports the statistical significance of the observed correlation, reinforcing the strength of the association between celestial positioning and political tendencies. This implies that the likelihood of such a strong correlation occurring by chance is extremely low. Thus, there is substantial evidence to suggest a meaningful relationship between the celestial alignment of Uranus and Saturn and the voting patterns exhibited by Delaware constituents.
Figure 1 visually encapsulates the considerable correlation identified in our analysis. The scatterplot showcases a clear trend, demonstrating how the alignment of Uranus and Saturn coincided with variations in Democratic votes over the years. This visual representation underscored the robustness of the correlation and provided a compelling illustration of the interplay between cosmic positioning and political inclinations.
Overall, our findings unveil a captivating interconnection between celestial configurations and political affiliations in Delaware. While this unorthodox relationship may elicit both reverence and amusement, our empirical analysis substantiates the existence of a distinct correlation, challenging conventional paradigms and stimulating contemplation about the potential cosmic influences on earthly decisions.

[[DISCUSSION]]
Our investigation has unearthed a bewildering yet compelling correlation between the positioning of Uranus and Saturn, two celestial bodies so far from Earth yet seemingly entwined with the political leanings of Delaware voters. In light of our results, it is imperative to revisit the scholarly discourse on the influence of celestial phenomena on human behavior, acknowledging and expanding upon various unconventional sources of information, from the scholarly to the silly.
As our findings concur with the works of Smith et al. (2018) and Doe (2015), we are reminded of the words of Douglas Adams in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," where he aptly opined, "The Answer to the Great Question... Of Life, the Universe, and Everything... Is... Forty-two." Here, we could jest that the "Answer" might also involve the political choices of Delaware voters being influenced by the cosmic dance of Uranus and Saturn, although we must address such conjectures with due gravity in academic discourse.
In synthesizing the profound and the peculiar, our research aligns with Jones' (2017) nuanced perspective and nods to the inexplicable wisdom found within the folds of overly long CVS receipts and cryptic fortune cookie messages. Indeed, our findings suggest that perhaps we should not be so quick to dismiss the cosmic whimsy suggested by these otherwise unrelated sources, even as we navigate the rigorous terrain of academic inquiry.
The substantial r-squared value and the compelling visual representation in Figure 1 lend incontrovertible support to the idea that the celestial alignment of Uranus and Saturn relates, in a non-trivial way, to the voting behaviors of the people of Delaware. While we are inclined to raise an eyebrow at this bewildering correlation, we must reconcile our surprise with the statistical significance of our results. Perhaps, as Sagan and Tyson suggested in their astronomical ruminations, there is more at play in the interstellar expanse than initially meets the eye.
While it may be tempting to dismiss these findings as mere cosmic coincidence, the low p-value compellingly argues otherwise, underscoring the importance of probing unconventional correlations beyond the realms of conventional explanation. In doing so, we invite both scientific sobriety and a hint of cosmic curiosity into the dialogue, embracing diverse perspectives that enrich the scholarly pursuit and, dare we say, make even the heavenly political.
In unraveling the cosmic undercurrents that appear to shape earthly decisions, our research offers a whimsically serious reminder that even the distant, seemingly detached movements of celestial bodies might hold sway over the political preferences of Delaware constituents. This, in turn, calls upon scholars to maintain both reverence and amusement in the pursuit of knowledge, for in doing so, we may unlock the hidden cosmic rhythms governing terrestrial affairs.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
INTRODUCTION
The intersection of astrophysics and political science has long been a subject that has garnered both intrigue and skepticism. In the realm of political analysis, numerous factors such as demographics, socio-economic indicators, and historical trends are typically held in high regard. However, the potential influence of celestial bodies on human behavior and decision-making has often been relegated to the fringes of academic discourse. Nonetheless, recent studies have suggested that there may be correlations between astronomical phenomena and political leanings, a notion that continues to provoke scholarly curiosity and public amusement alike.
In this paper, we endeavor to explore the peculiar link between the positions of Uranus and Saturn relative to the Earth and the voting patterns for the Democratic presidential candidate in the state of Delaware. While the undertaking may raise a few eyebrows and evoke quizzical reactions, our approach adheres to prudent statistical methodologies and rigorous analysis. By leveraging data from reputable sources such as Astropy, the MIT Election Data and Science Lab, and the Harvard Dataverse, we seek to provide a fresh perspective on the intricate interplay between the cosmic and the terrestrial.
Through an intricate fusion of astrological and political data, our research aims to unravel the mysterious dance of celestial bodies and its potential impact on the voting behavior of Delaware constituents. By shedding light on this unconventional nexus, we hope to inspire a thoughtful exploration of the manifold influences that shape human decision-making. Our findings may provide a whimsical lens through which to interpret the electoral dynamics in Delaware, while concurrently prompting contemplation of the broader cosmic forces that ostensibly exert influence on Earthly affairs.
The journey into the celestial and political mélange promises to be both enlightening and, dare I say, stellar in its revelatory potential. Join us as we venture into the cosmic sea of data and delve into the celestial tapestry that may, ever so surprisingly, weave into the fabric of political allegiances. Let the twinkling stars and the ballot counts guide us through this astro-political odyssey.
[[RESULTS]]
RESULTS
Our analysis of the data revealed a striking correlation between the distance separating Uranus and Saturn and the Democratic presidential candidate's votes in Delaware. The correlation coefficient of 0.9059851 indicates a strong positive relationship between these seemingly disparate phenomena. This finding suggests that as the celestial bodies Uranus and Saturn gravitated closer or farther from each other, the votes for the Democratic candidate in Delaware exhibited a discernible pattern of change. With an r-squared value of 0.8208091, approximately 82.08% of the variability in Democratic votes can be explained by the distance between Uranus and Saturn. Remarkably, this suggests that a significant portion of the variance in political preferences within Delaware can be attributed to the cosmic dance of these distant planets.
The p-value of less than 0.01 further supports the statistical significance of the observed correlation, reinforcing the strength of the association between celestial positioning and political tendencies. This implies that the likelihood of such a strong correlation occurring by chance is extremely low. Thus, there is substantial evidence to suggest a meaningful relationship between the celestial alignment of Uranus and Saturn and the voting patterns exhibited by Delaware constituents.
Figure 1 visually encapsulates the considerable correlation identified in our analysis. The scatterplot showcases a clear trend, demonstrating how the alignment of Uranus and Saturn coincided with variations in Democratic votes over the years. This visual representation underscored the robustness of the correlation and provided a compelling illustration of the interplay between cosmic positioning and political inclinations.
Overall, our findings unveil a captivating interconnection between celestial configurations and political affiliations in Delaware. While this unorthodox relationship may elicit both reverence and amusement, our empirical analysis substantiates the existence of a distinct correlation, challenging conventional paradigms and stimulating contemplation about the potential cosmic influences on earthly decisions.

CONCLUSION
In the grand cosmic symphony of politics, our research has uncovered a celestial overture that harmoniously resonates with the earthly ballot counts in Delaware. Through our empirical investigation, the compelling correlation between the orbital dynamics of Uranus and Saturn and the Democratic votes in Delaware has emerged as a celestial melodrama. The robust correlation coefficient of 0.9059851, supported by a p-value of less than 0.01, undeniably accentuates the synchronized dance of these distant planets with the political leanings of Delaware constituents. Such an observation challenges conventional thinking and hints at the celestial forces at play, beckoning the scholarly universe to consider new frontiers of influence.
Our findings, while undoubtedly unconventional, demand thoughtful consideration, as they reflect the celestial whimsy that seems to waltz in step with human political proclivities. The visual evidence presented in Figure 1 serves as a starlit testament to the cosmic choreography that accompanies the ebb and flow of Democratic votes, enticing both scholarly curiosity and perhaps a cosmic chuckle. This revelatory dance of celestial bodies and political leanings may appear whimsical, yet it divulges a deeper connection that challenges traditional paradigms, inviting a celestial encore in scholarly pursuits.
As we draw the curtain on this astro-political odyssey, our empirical exploration illuminates an intriguing nexus, stimulating the imagination and, dare I say, sparking cosmic contemplations. Consequently, we assert that, at this juncture, no further research in this area is warranted, as our findings shine a supernova of light on the influence of celestial positioning on political preferences. The celestial ballots have been cast, and our scholarly verdict is resoundingly celestial: the cosmic dance of Uranus and Saturn wields a cosmic influence on political proclivities, and further research would be overreaching the Milky Way of scholarly inquiry.

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.8208091 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 82.1% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Votes for the Democratic Presidential candidate in Delaware) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The distance between Uranus and Saturn) over the 12 years from 1976 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 4.9E-5. 0.0000493104224727886460000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.91 in 0.0049% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 20,280 random variables You don't actually need 20 thousand variables to find a correlation like this one. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 11 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 11 because we have two variables measured over a period of 12 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.69, 0.97 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is. - Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves.
Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.
