Things are different in Lackawanna County, which seems set to favor Biden, a Scranton native. Biden received 29,007 in-person votes and 31,994 there, leading to a 53.76% total.

That’s compared to Trump’s 42,658 in-person votes and only 8,738 mail-in ones in Lackawanna County, leading to a comparatively light 45.3%. Lackawanna County reports having processed nearly 98% percent of its mail-in ballots, with only 854 left to go through, so a surprise victory for Trump there is impossible.
