> Benford's law is broken when people vote strategically against a candidate or change their vote when their preferred candidate drops out. That has nothing to do with why Benford's law doesn't work. Benford's law doesn't apply to precinct vote counts because precincts are roughly equally sized and Benford's law only applies to data that approximately follows a power law distribution and spans at least a few orders of magnitude.
