Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that dark matter exerts a gravitational pull on ordinary matter?

Yes. A Wikipedia article on dark matter states that dark matter's gravitational potential acts as an attractive well for ordinary matter, and several other sources (a physics Q&A, a Wikinews report, and peer-reviewed papers) describe dark matter exerting gravitational attraction on ordinary or baryonic matter.
