If true, then the outstanding votes have to be overwhelmingly Biden in order for him to win. So, assuming that a million is all that's left, 500k votes MORE than Trump's remaining votes will have to be covered for a Biden win. Biden can't win with getting half the remaining votes. He'd still be 500k behind.

So Biden would need to win by about 70% of the remaining, but they are mostly mail-in from heavily D areas, so well within the realm of possibility. WaPo's projection has it likely for Biden.

WI and NV are pretty much in the bag for Biden. If Biden's lead in MI holds, and it seems likely it will, then NC, GA, and PA could all go for Trump and he still loses. I think there's a good chance Biden gets at least one of those which will just be icing on the cake.

that Biden is getting in the 75-80% range of the mail in ballots here in SE PA so the possibility is very real.
