34. the biggest swing state (TExas) starts counting ballots as they start arriving
Tue Oct 6, 2020, 01:16 AM
Oct 2020

The only ones which should be remaining for the Ballot Board to review will be the ones which arrive Nov 3 before 7:00 pm.

Counties with 100000 or fewer total population have to wait until early voting ends before beginning their count. That is still 3 full days plus Election Day to get it done - early voting ends Oct 30 .

The early vote (both in person and by mail) combined will be that first big number that pops up after the polls close.
