This is the report in a nutshell.

Executive Summary. We find strong evidence that a DNA sample of primarily European descent also contains Native American ancestry from an ancestor in the sample’s pedigree 6-10 generations ago. We find little or no evidence of African ancestry in this sample.
Meaning Warren is not more than 1/32nd and not less than 1/1024th Native American.
Let's analyze this a little. A generation is the period of time, usually considered to be about thirty years, that it takes for children to grow up and become adults and have children of their own. If I'm interrupting it correctly and using this as a guide Warren had some traces of Native American ancestry one ancestor dating back at the earliest anywhere from 180 to 300 years ago.
Elizabeth Warren’s parents
(Mr. and Mrs. Plain Vanilla)
Bear in mind this is what Warren said not very long ago. Remember they didn’t have DNA testing back then.
“My mom and dad were very much in love with each other and they wanted to get married and my father’s parents said absolutely not. You can’t marry her because she’s part Cherokee and she’s part, Delaware. And um, after fighting it as long as they could, my parents went off, they eloped.”
So you're going to tell me her grandparents on her father's side were against the marriage of their son because they knew the girl he was going to marry is of Native American ancestry? How could they possibly know that? The likelihood? The DNA evidence shows it first occurred 6 to 10 generations ago. Warren made it sound like her mother was an active member of an Indian tribe. She sent smoke signals instead of texts. From what I can understand the bottom line is technically (if you want to split hairs) Warren is of Native American decent… you only have to go back 180 to 300 years to prove it. Judging it by that yardstick she's about as Indian as Rachel Dolezal is black.
