Until this year, most of the absentee ballots have been military service people and out-of-state college students. I'm not sure how many shut-ins such as elderly or handicapped were voting by absentee ballot. (I'd think it's a significant number because our median age is higher in PA.)

This year with Covid it's all katty-wampus, because now a lot of us want to vote by mail. I'm sure the mail-in ballots will skew Democratic by a large margin.

What happened on 2016 is irrelevant, they're not going to declare a recount now. Once Chump was sworn in, the vote count didn't matter any more.
