They don't want to fuck with the counts in other states, and they're entitled to release the final tally when they do. The Republicans want to throw out votes. They want to fuck it up.

was dictated by the Trump campaign?

They have 140k ballots left to count, including provisional ones. Link down-thread.

They will have a good idea this Saturday or Sunday per the NV Registrar’s presser this morning. The 11/12 date is the last date to count any more ballots that are postmarked 11/3, but received by the 11/10 deadline.

Per Jon Ralston

“One of the reasons no one has officially called Nevada is the volume of ballots still out there.

It's about 140,000, with almost 90 percent in Clark.

But 90 percent in Clark makes it worse for Trump.

Those votes are going to help Dems.“

....and I recall reading Death Count Donnie's ceiling was 248, far short of 270, so not sweating this at all!

I'm thinking every outstanding state is going Biden.

So they might as well just release final final numbers once rather than risk being wrong and having to keep updating them.

I think they know they are going to get lawsuits from the Trump campaign so it is in their best interest to make sure they are crossing every t and dotting every i and doing things 100% by the book. It isn't a race.

Everyone wants instant gratification, but I'd prefer that it be done accurately and correctly procedure-wise so that there are zero (legitimate) questions when the dust settles.

Clark County Registrar Joe Gloria, during a news conference on Thursday, said that his staff was in the process of counting 51,000 ballots, the results of which would be reported on Friday.

There are still votes coming in through the mail. This is normal. They have until the 12th to complete the results. It just so happens the race is tight so it cannot be called as early as say, California.

So pop some popcorn and let play out.

I know they have until the 12th. I still think they should have planned better and not keep the whole nation waiting like this.
