Philadelphia's pace of counting will slow as the final batch of ballots are addressed
Philadelphia’s election office is not expected to release more count details on Friday night as the remaining ballots prove more challenging to sort through.

Some context: The slow pace of this phase is not unique to this election, this phase always takes extra time after Election Day. What is unique is there have never been so many mail-in ballots in the city and throughout the commonwealth.
The mail-in ballot issues that require this additional review include: a voter not writing the date on their ballot, a voter listing their birth date where they should list the current date, a voter not including their address on the ballot or signing the wrong side of the ballot's envelope. - CNN
