Justin Wolfers(@JustinWolfers):A smoke alarm going off doesn't mean there's a fire. It means there's something worth checking.⁣ ⁣ The Census Bureau's report matched voting records to immigration records and found 24,000 alerts, then called them 24,000 illegal votes. That's not what an alarm tells you. It tells you to go look.
