A serious relieving dump of votes just in from PA, we’re down to 78,000.

(it was 66-33 Biden, still ahead of pace)

3855

326,000 from the PA election official a little while ago - mail in ballots

3856

Those always feel good.

3857

Like waking up after too much curry.

3858

Trump is speaking at 6:30. No doubt it will be a bowl of hot crap.

3859

My expectation is that total vote is 6,780,000 (this was listed on Pennsylvania voting website)

Total vote counts is 6,440,000 (and change, from WaPo website)

Biden trails (as of latest tally) by 79,000 with 340,000 to count

Biden needs (340,000 + 79,000)/(2 * 340,000) percent of the remaining vote to pull even, or just less than 62%.

3860

Trump going to speak here soon.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

3861

OK, so if only 326,000 are remaining the required percentage is a little higher, but Biden still seems to be exceeding it.

3862

That big ballot drop all came from the same place, apparently.

And there may indeed be 50k + provisionals. And that could be Philly alone.

3863

Yeah that would bump it up to around 62% which he’s still ahead of.

Central time, I’m assuming!

3866

And Cumberland is Trump+11 (+17 in 2016). Only one “major” red county left.

3867
3868

Woah. They’ve only counted a couple of hundred provisionals so far.

3869

Maybe the networks should call PA at 3:30. For no particular reason.

My wife was a poll worker this year and she said that a surprising number of people were outraged or at least surprised that they had to vote provisionally after requesting a mail-in ballot. I think a lot of people just thought they could request a mail-in and then vote however they wanted, and of course Trump was telling people to try to vote twice this way.

I don’t know PA election law, but that’s confusing. In CA, you get a ballot in the mail. You can mail it back, drop it off at a ballot box, drop it at a polling place on election day, vote it in a voting booth, or grab a provisional ballot at a polling place. Any of the above.

3872

Yeah, CA voting was smooth for me this year.

3873

LMAO!
