A big problem with this video is it really only makes sense if you watched his previous videos. If you just show this to a random person, they will be completely confused, not just because of the math but due to the complete and total lack of context.

There needs to be a "summary" version that also explains that what represents what, what the precincts are, how the leaves on the wheel represent what, what the wheel number exactly is, and how it matches up with the real election results. Without this context a lot of the video watches like "Hey look at this wheel look how it mathematically balances itself by averaging out the negative and positive sides real neato". Also WAY too much time is spent explaining how to balance averages on a wheel. This part is not difficult to understand, and results in a long winded explanation of something that is actually extremely simple. More time should be spent on falsifiability, and hard evidence that this did indeed happen by using the actual election data.

TL;DR good try, but severely lacking in context. Layman-speak needs to also layman the context or else it really isn't layman speak. The starcraft video does a better job providing layman-speak than this does.
