1. AFIK we have never, ever, had a final ballot count on election day. With all the soldiers...

students, people on international assignment, people in nursing homes or other restrictions on leaving home, and provisional ballots, among other things I can't think of at the moment.

I keep saying that voting is a fundamental right where the default is to let you vote, not force you to come up with reasons you should be allowed to vote.

4. If they are small rural counties and Biden has a big enough lead, it won't matter

the state would be called that night as a few small counties would not be able to make up the difference.
