(12,744 posts)4. Reports I'm seeing are about 7K absentees
Over half from Alleghany (Dem stronghold) - and absentees historically skew Democratic in general.

. . . . it appears Lamb will win after absentee ballots are counted.
When all in person votes come in, looks like Lamb up by a few hundred.
Allegheny and Westmoreland will count all absentee votes by midnight.
Washington and Greene will not count until tomorrow.
Recount mandatory at 0.5% margin.
