1. WI counts mail in starting tomorrow.

[Dem2]

4. That explains it

Biden should be up there, even with the polling error.

5. We are going to get WI MN MI, and I think PENN courts siding with vote in Penn.

Pick up AZ and NV and doesn't that make us good to go?

I never saw OH or FL. Georgia is still open as is NC.

[Dem2]

8. The little notes on the NYT map set me at ease

MI & PA "results could be significantly stronger for Republicans"

WI 3AM to 6AM

At least I feel like we have a chance now...

9. This is why Trump has been saying don't count the votes.

They will start a conspiracy that the votes in these states that haven't even begun being counted yet don't count, are fake ballots, all that jazz. It's 2000 redux. Trump is going to lose if the votes are counted.

2. the big dem areas wont report it until 5am tomorow.

Sikes is saying Trump is underperforming in rural areas and there are big numbers in dem areas about to come later.

3. They couldn't start processing the votes until this morning

6. At the same time...

Absentee ballots take longer to process than ballots cast in person on Election Day. That’s because absentee ballot envelopes need to be checked against poll books and checked for voter signature, voter address and witness signature requirements before they’re opened. After they’re unsealed, ballots must be smoothed out before they’re fed into tabulating machines. If any ballots are damaged or the machine won’t accept them because they’re too rumpled or creased, the ballot will need to be re-created by poll workers in a time-consuming process dictated by state law.

Poll workers can begin processing absentee ballots as soon as polls open at 7 a.m. Election Day, but not before.

There are two main ways absentee ballots will be processed on Election Day across Wisconsin: either at polling places scattered across a community or at one "central count" location in the community.
