Pennsylvania

do we think there is still enough votes in Pennsylvania?

Assuming at least a rate of, at minimum, 65% to Biden, it appears he could take a lead but it still appears to be very narrow. 5k to 10k. I have no idea why they were saying Biden would be up 100k by the end of the night. There doesn't appear to be enough votes to get anywhere near that.

Just my anxiety but it does appear NV will go Biden but AZ is still an up hill climb. GA looks OK but still not a sure thing.

I'm optimistic but also realistic.

Do you really think they would be saying that if they didn’t know their state and look closely at the math?? Really?

is left, so that's making me a bit anxious too. Can only hope they know what they're talking about. I live in AZ, and I'm HOPEFUL, but don't want to count on it.

But I've been crunching very simple calculations. And I really don't understand the root data from this site

5. I did a little calculation when the margin was 100K and came up with a 100K lead for Biden after all

votes are counted. Seemed right - I think I was assuming 70%-30% split though.
