Trump is likely losing, but his chance of winning is not yet mathematically zero.

Also, my chance of being hit by a bus is not mathematically zero, even though I am sitting in my kitchen, 200 feet from any bus route.

If the 75% pace keeps up, Biden will win by around 50,000 votes. But I saw a number a little while ago saying there were only 100,000 votes left. We'll see.

Thu Nov 5, 2020, 10:52 AM
Nov 2020

61k votes are outstanding in Georgia.
17,157 from Chatham;
11,200 from Fulton;
7,338 from Gwinnett;
4,713 from Forsyth;
3,641 from Harris;
1,797 from Laurens;
1,552 from Putnam;
1,202 from Sumter;
700 from Cobb







Overall in 2016:
Chatham was 55.7 Clinton; 41.2 trump
Fulton was 69.2 Clinton; 27.1 trump
Gwinnett was 51.0 Clinton; 45.2 trump

So if these are all the early mailed-in ballots, the %s should be much higher than overall

outstanding ballots numbers had to be corrected by CNN. Went from 550k outstanding to 370k outstanding, completely screwed the math. If Biden gets 80% in the roughly 100K+ Philly area, he'll need at least 60% in the rest of the state to tie.
