3. They had some machine trouble earlier today

5. Apparently just a tabulator issue.

Did no affect people's ability to vote, just slowed down ability to quickly count the ballots. Of course Repugs sued. What else is new.

6. They report the mail-in and early voting totals first

That’s why Democrats frequently jump out to a big lead at the beginning in some states then the gap narrows or disappears as the Election Day vote results roll in slowly.
