You guess wrong!! :grinning:

We are on day 17 of daily tabulation and adjudication. I’m updating here instead of my poll workers thread since AZ is so red hot all of a sudden. But I haven’t read most of this thread. I’ve been sort of isolated from the news all day and worked today under that assumption that AZ was already called for Biden.

I do not have any insight into the order the remaining ballots are being processed. I’m honestly not sure anybody does or if it’s even possible. But I think what some people fail to understand is that a shitload of people handed in sealed early mail-in ballots at polling places yesterday for whatever reason (maybe forgot to mail until too late, maybe didn’t trust the mail, etc.)

Unlike votes that were cast and scanned at polling sites, these ballots have to go through the full process for a mail-in ballot including:

  1. Signature Verification
  2. Extract from envelope, unfold, stack in batches
  3. Run through the high-speed tabulation machine (6-8k per hour I think?)
  4. A certain percentage will be flagged for adjudication, where humans look at the ballot images to resolve write-ins and analyze ambiguous marks etc.

This process takes time. The night shift of adjudicators is working for a couple more hours tonight. You can even watch them on the “BTC North” webcam at the link below. My shift will start again at 7:30am tomorrow. Wish us luck!!

Amazingly they’re not chanting to stop the count.

From Counting Dashboard

That 0% returned in York is a little concerning since it is 62-37 in favor of Trump. Also have to assume some of these don’t get returned or end up voting in person.

Biden within 31,748 in Georgia

Perdue at 50.15%

I can’t be arsed to do this, but it’s fun to think about usernames with maximum troll value. Best I could come up with was “OnePumpTrump”.

Trump’s lead in Georgia is now down to 31,748 votes, per Decision Desk HQ.

So what are they protesting? lol

poor lost sweet summer child :bouquet:

NATE’S PONY IS DOWN TO 31,748 VOTES

I don’t get AZ not being called. 76% of the outstanding is Maricopa with Biden leading their 53/47. Donny would need to pull something over 60% of what is outstanding in that county to close the gap. Is he really going improve 13% over whats already come out?

I guess the last tranche was 59% Trump?

This still feels entirely too slow, w/e. Drinky drinky.

Just wanted to point out the coincidence that Tuff Fish’s first big loss here is to the same EmpireMaker2 who just made millions on betting for Biden.

I agree but I’m taking it out of lock territory with the caveat that the AP knows more than me. We’re going to hold because of Pima I think.

Holy crap! So I guess they’re not going to be close to done at the 10:30 drop.

Good luck with the protestors.

Lol please allow flash for the webcam when Chrome already made me uninstall it. Great that there is a webcam though.
