AI explanation
As Democrat votes for Senators in Oklahoma decreased, there was a corresponding decrease in the cosmic energy that attracted people to Norway. This led to a shift in the Earth's magnetic field, creating a temporary disruption in the alignment of personal aspirations with Scandinavian destinations. Or maybe, just maybe, it's because political preferences in Oklahoma have about as much to do with immigrating to Norway as the price of lemons in Antarctica.Model: dalle-3

[[INTRODUCTION]]
Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished colleagues, and esteemed readers, prepare to be whisked away on a statistical rollercoaster ride through the enigmatic corridors of political behavior and wanderlust. Our voyage begins in the heartland of the United States, where the winds of politics blow across the fields of Oklahoma, and then takes a detour to the majestic land of Norway, where the Northern Lights dance in the skies and the smell of lefse fills the air.
As we embark on this scholarly escapade, we are compelled to investigate the seemingly improbable connection between the Democratic electorate's voting choices for Senators in the great state of Oklahoma and their sudden fascination with all things Nordic, particularly the fervent desire to unravel the mystery of "how to immigrate to Norway" through the venerated oracle of our time, Google.
Now, you might be wondering, what on earth could link Oklahoman Democrats and their urge to traverse the Atlantic to reach the Norwegian shores? Are they seeking a respite from the tumultuous winds of U.S. politics by seeking shelter amidst the fjords and the peaceful coexistence with trolls? Or is there an inexplicable attraction toward the Scandinavian lifestyle, perhaps spurred by the allure of hygge and the promise of free healthcare and education?
Intriguingly, our quest transforms into a rigorous statistical examination of this capricious phenomenon, aiming to discern whether the voting patterns of Democrats in Oklahoma exhibit any discernible relationship with their inclination to turn their virtual compasses toward the icy embrace of Norway. Our statistical journey takes us through the labyrinth of election data, Google search trends, and the sumptuous banquet of correlation analyses, as we seek to unravel the mysteries of this perplexing dalliance between politics and the pursuit of a Nordic idyll.
As we navigate the intriguing waters of this unlikely coupling, prepare to be not only enlightened by the power of statistical inference but also entertained by the unexpected quirks and curiosities that emerge when politics and wanderlust intersect. So, fasten your seatbelts, dear readers, for we are about to embark on an academic odyssey that will showcase the fascinating, and at times whimsical, relationship between politics and the perennial yearning for faraway lands.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The enthralling quest to decipher the inexplicable connection between the Democrats' voting preferences in the heartland of Oklahoma and their sudden fascination with immigrating to the fjord-filled utopia of Norway has elicited the scholarly attention of a plethora of researchers in numerous fields. Smith et al. (2015) scrutinized the demographics and political leanings of Oklahomans, shedding light on the intricate tapestry of public opinion and its convergence with regional political dynamics. Meanwhile, Doe and Jones (2018) probed into the underlying factors influencing individuals' propensities to seek international relocation, uncovering a myriad of motivations ranging from economic opportunities to a desire for cultural enrichment.
As we traverse the scholarly landscape, one cannot help but be drawn to seminal works such as "Nordic Dreams: The Allure of Scandinavian Societies" by von Hauge (2017) and "Fjords and Fauna: A Practical Guide to Embracing Norway" by Leifsdottir (2019) for insights into the romanticized appeal of the land of the Northern Lights. While the former provides a comprehensive analysis of the cultural, socio-economic, and political factors driving the allure of Nordic societies, the latter offers a pragmatic roadmap for prospective immigrants seeking to navigate the labyrinthine pathways of international relocation.
In a departure from the traditional academic sources, it is worth noting the unexpected inspiration derived from the realm of fiction. The subtly relevant undertones of escapism and the longing for uncharted territories in authors such as J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and C.S. Lewis's "The Chronicles of Narnia" cannot be overlooked. The allure of fantastical realms and the pursuit of a new beginning parallels the Democrats' yearning for an escape to Norway in the face of political tumult.
Moreover, the authors found unexpected insight from the world of children's television. The prevalence of suffused yearning for adventure and escapism in cartoon classics such as "The Magic School Bus" and "Dora the Explorer" cannot be underestimated. Whether through the whimsical voyages of Ms. Frizzle's magical school bus or Dora's perennial quest to explore uncharted territories, the underlying theme of seeking the unknown resonates with the Democrats' virtual expeditions to unearth the secrets of Norwegian immigration.
In unraveling this enchantingly peculiar saga, our research team has delved into a rich tapestry of scholarly and literary works, transcending conventional boundaries to glean a nuanced understanding of the symbiotic relationship between political proclivities and the allure of distant shores.

[[DISCUSSION]]
The correlation we uncovered between the voting behavior of Democrats for Senators in Oklahoma and their curiosity about immigrating to Norway is, without a shadow of a fjord, a striking revelation. Our findings waltz in tune with prior research that delved into the allure of Nordic societies and the yearning for international relocation. Smith et al.’s scrutiny of demographics and political leanings in Oklahoma hints at the nuanced tapestry of public opinion, mirroring our own quest to unravel the mystical ties between Oklahoma Democrats and the seductive pull of Norway. It seems that the call of the North resonates deeply with segments of the Oklahoma electorate, much like a siren song drawing sailors to their fate.
Moreover, the unexpected sources of inspiration from fiction and children's television, while seemingly whimsical, indeed hint at the universal undercurrent of escapism and the longing for uncharted territories that intertwine with the Democrats' virtual voyages to explore the intricacies of Norwegian immigration. The subtle echoes of longing for new beginnings in J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and C.S. Lewis's "The Chronicles of Narnia" surreptitiously align with the Democrats' desire for an escape to Norway in the midst of political upheaval. Similarly, the whimsical voyages of Ms. Frizzle's magical school bus and Dora the Explorer's unyielding quest to uncover uncharted territories invoke the same yearning for adventure and new experiences that drive the virtual expeditions of our intrepid Oklahoma Democrats.
In essence, our results amplify and corroborate the line of inquiry from the literature review, revealing an unanticipated and intriguing connection between political leanings and the desire to emigrate to Norway. The statistical robustness of our findings not only underscores the allure of Scandinavia but also illustrates the whimsical charm of political proclivities. It leaves us pondering the enigmatic forces at play, evoking images of Democrats in Oklahoma gazing wistfully at posters of majestic Norwegian fjords while casting their votes amidst the windswept plains of the Sooner State.
As we beckon our esteemed colleagues to contemplate the implications of our findings, we are reminded of the words of Robert Frost: “Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less traveled by." Perhaps, in the case of our intrepid Oklahoma Democrats, the road to Oslo, with its promise of fjords and reindeer, beckoned louder than we could have imagined.

Sooner Senators Sway Scandinavia: A Statistical Study of Oklahoma Democrats' Desire to Dash to Denmark, Bypassing Barriers Blatantly
[[ABSTRACT]]
This study delves into the intriguing relationship between the voting patterns of Democrats for Senators in the state of Oklahoma and their proclivity to seek information on immigrating to Norway, a Scandinavian utopia renowned for its fjords, cuisine, and Norse mythology. Leveraging data from MIT Election Data and Science Lab, Harvard Dataverse, and Google Trends, our research team scrutinized the years 2004 to 2020, unearthing a statistically significant correlation coefficient of 0.8334156 (p < 0.05) between the two variables. Our findings not only highlight the magnetism of Nordic nations but also indicate a noteworthy trend of Oklahoman Democrats seeking an escape route to the land of the midnight sun. This paper not only elucidates an interesting social phenomenon but also demonstrates the power of statistical analysis to unveil the unexpected whims and fancies of political constituencies.

Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished colleagues, and esteemed readers, prepare to be whisked away on a statistical rollercoaster ride through the enigmatic corridors of political behavior and wanderlust. Our voyage begins in the heartland of the United States, where the winds of politics blow across the fields of Oklahoma, and then takes a detour to the majestic land of Norway, where the Northern Lights dance in the skies and the smell of lefse fills the air.
As we embark on this scholarly escapade, we are compelled to investigate the seemingly improbable connection between the Democratic electorate's voting choices for Senators in the great state of Oklahoma and their sudden fascination with all things Nordic, particularly the fervent desire to unravel the mystery of "how to immigrate to Norway" through the venerated oracle of our time, Google.
Now, you might be wondering, what on earth could link Oklahoman Democrats and their urge to traverse the Atlantic to reach the Norwegian shores? Are they seeking a respite from the tumultuous winds of U.S. politics by seeking shelter amidst the fjords and the peaceful coexistence with trolls? Or is there an inexplicable attraction toward the Scandinavian lifestyle, perhaps spurred by the allure of hygge and the promise of free healthcare and education?
Intriguingly, our quest transforms into a rigorous statistical examination of this capricious phenomenon, aiming to discern whether the voting patterns of Democrats in Oklahoma exhibit any discernible relationship with their inclination to turn their virtual compasses toward the icy embrace of Norway. Our statistical journey takes us through the labyrinth of election data, Google search trends, and the sumptuous banquet of correlation analyses, as we seek to unravel the mysteries of this perplexing dalliance between politics and the pursuit of a Nordic idyll.
As we navigate the intriguing waters of this unlikely coupling, prepare to be not only enlightened by the power of statistical inference but also entertained by the unexpected quirks and curiosities that emerge when politics and wanderlust intersect. So, fasten your seatbelts, dear readers, for we are about to embark on an academic odyssey that will showcase the fascinating, and at times whimsical, relationship between politics and the perennial yearning for faraway lands.

[[CONCLUSION]]
In conclusion, our research has uncovered a captivating correlation between the voting tendencies of Democrats in Oklahoma and their penchant for exploring the realms of Nordic immigration, akin to a political journey of "From Oklahoma to Oslo." Our statistically significant findings not only shed light on the unexpected allure of Scandinavia but also provide a whimsical reminder of the human spirit's proclivity for wanderlust, even amidst the political maelstrom.
As we bid adieu to this comical escapade into the statistical symphony of Scandinavian dreams, it is evident that the allure of the fjords and the enchanting prospect of crossing the political spectrum to reach the verdant lands of Norway have captivated the hearts and minds of some Oklahoman Democrats. Our findings serve as a delightful reminder that, in the grand tapestry of statistical inquiry, even the unlikeliest of correlations can emerge from the woodwork, much like a mischievous gnome from the Norwegian forests.
However, as we polished our conclusions like the fjord-kissed pebbles of a Scandinavian shoreline, it became evident that further research in this domain may yield diminishing returns, much like expecting the Northern Lights to perform an encore late into the Arctic night. While the temptation to embark on further statistical journeys into the nexus of political allegiance and transcontinental yearning is undeniable, it is our scholarly duty to recognize that, in the realm of statistical quirks, we have struck oil, or rather, discovered a cache of lutefisk in the data mines of the Oklahoma-Norway connection.
Hence, we assert with statistical confidence that no more research is needed in this area, and instead, we encourage our esteemed peers to join us in raising a virtual toast with akvavit to the unpredictability and amusement that statistical inquiry can unravel, particularly when it ventures beyond the realms of mundane association. Let us cherish the delightful correlation we have unveiled, for it is like a rare Northern Lights display, a statistical marvel in the tapestry of political curiosities. Cheers to the wondrous world of statistics, where even the most unexpected pairings can emerge like a statistical unicorn amidst the data forests!

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 = 0.6945816 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 69.5% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Google searches for 'how to immigrate to norway') is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Votes for Democratic Senators in Oklahoma) over the 6 years from 2004 through 2020.
p < 0.05, which statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.039. 0.0393141322223927300000000000
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 0.83 in 3.9% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 25 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 5 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 5 because we have two variables measured over a period of 6 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.
[ 0.07, 0.98 ] 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. - Very low n: There are not many data points included in this analysis. Even if the p-value is high, we should be suspicious of using so few datapoints in a correlation.
