In theory, the Nevada drop will seal if for Biden there, Georgia is supposed to finish counting while could very well put Biden ahead, and he should move ahead in Pennsylvania today as well.

GA, NV, and AZ, possibly today, or tomorrow. PA, depends on law suits, but a straight up count could be over by the weekend.

Updated at 10:50 EST.

Nevada (still) hasn't changed but overnight Arizona shifted very slightly in Trump's favor.

Nevada: With 86% counted, Biden needs 47.7% of the remaining (estimated 163,640) uncounted votes and Trump needs 52.3%. The Nevada numbers haven't changed in quite a while so I don't know what's going on there.

Arizona: With 86% counted, Biden needs 41.5% of the remaining (estimated 401,841) uncounted votes and Trump needs 58.5%.

If Biden fails to win either of those states he'll have to win the 17 vote total he needs from:

Alaska, 3 electoral votes, 47% counted, estimated 87,492 uncounted votes, Biden needs 79.4% of those, Trump needs 20.6%.

Georgia, 16 electoral votes, 96% counted, estimated 193,861 uncounted votes, Biden needs 54.8% of those, Trump needs 45.2%.

North Carolina, 15 electoral votes, 95% counted, estimated 269,375 uncounted votes, Biden needs 64.2% of those, Trump needs 35.8%.

Pennsylvania, 20 electoral votes, 91% counted, estimated 568,183 uncounted votes, Biden needs 61.9% of those, Trump needs 38.1%.

With revised current PA totals of Biden = 3,088,796, Trump = 3,224,422, and 568,190 uncounted votes, 75% of the uncounted votes would give Biden 3,514,938 and 25% would give Trump 3,366,469, for a Biden win by a margin of 148,469 votes. That would be all she wrote for Trump.

Trump's jumping up and down and yelling, b/c he doesn't want these counted.

PA is still counting votes and Biden will probably pull ahead of Trump some time today.

That is effectively the end of any drama, regarding vote counts. Biden will have at least 273 EV at that point in time.

Then we move on to how much damage will the #MAGATurds do to our country before the transfer of power in January.
