After yesterday reporting 100% of votes counted, Arizona now reports more votes and lower Biden lead

Yesterday the website of Katie Hobbs, Arizona's Secretary of State, reported Biden 1,645,277, Trump 1,629,845 with "Precincts Reporting: 100%" and all 15 precincts showing "Precinct Percent 100.00%"

That's a total of 3,275,122 votes counted with Joe Biden ahead by 15,432 votes.

This morning as of 7:55 AM EST the same web page is showing Biden 1,648,642, Trump 1,633,896, again with "Precincts Reporting: 100%" and all 15 precincts showing "Precinct Percent 100.00%"

That's a total of 3,282,538 votes counted with Joe Biden ahead by 14,746, which is an additional 7,416 votes counted and Biden's lead reduced by 686 votes.

ballots be considered the same? Those could be the extra, as I seem to recall Nov. 11th was the deadline for them to arrive. I would guess they would lean toward Trump.

everything I've read is that the military ballots were breaking towards Biden as trump was no friend of the military and their families.

There still could be odds and ends of votes remaining to be counted in precincts that have reported their results to the state, such as late arriving military ballots, provisionals, etc.

Precincts/counties are counting provisional ballots now here in PA. The order was same day vote, mail/absentee ballots, provisional ballots, then odd stuff like the 29,000 incorrectly printed ballots that went out to Allegheny county voters and the ballots that arrived between election and Friday (3 days, but postmarked by election day).

given that 2/3rds of these are either provisional or waiting signature verification, the number that gets counted is likely less.

Of those that are definitely coming, the majority are from solidly blue Pima county.

AZ auto recount is only at one tenth of a percent. We should stay well above that.

8. Right, it's the 15 precincts each showing "Precinct Percent 100.00%" that DO mean that.

It's not the "Precincts Reporting: 100%" that means all votes were counted, you have to click on that to get the pop-up window that lists all 15 precincts and showed "Precinct Percent 100.00%" for all precincts, both yesterday and today. That's what implies that all votes were counted yesterday and that new, unexplained, votes have appeared today.

There are ~61,000 votes in AZ outstanding.

Many folks have been tracking these updates since Tuesday night.

Anything less than 100% would mean that some of the votes that are counted are not counted, so it's really assuring to know from that pop-up window that all of the votes that have been counted have been counted.

Confusing website is confusing.
