Maybe they're hoping to curtail a MI/AZ siege before it can form. BusyBeingBest Nov 2020 #4

But that's not necessarily final results. They've been saying all along they'd update Squinch Nov 2020 #5

Per the article...
"Nevada lawmakers passed a bill over the summer to provide for a mostly mail-in vote amid Covid-19 concerns, allowing mailed ballots to be counted so long as they were postmarked by Election Day and received by officials within a week of the election. In Nevada, election results are required to be certified and reported by Nov. 16.

“There are still a great deal of mail-in ballots that are being counted, processed and that are still coming in,” Russell said.

So if Nevada becomes key to either candidate getting to 270, it'll be next Tuesday before a winner can be declared.
