If 3,500 are left and he’s getting 84%, why would he need a recount? Unless my math sucks, that’s a win.

So I assumed she meant 85% of the 3500 votes equalled the 2000+ to bring him up in tecount territory.

There are votes elsewhere still being counted.

And they said that whichever campaign loses will likely request a recount, as it will be within the range it's allowed.

I don’t know how many and who’s advantage but people have until tomorrow to fix ballots with errors or something.

An election official in ONE COUNTY Georgia said their were 3500 votes remaining, and that they were trending 85% for Biden. That would put him past trump, since he is currently down only 1267 votes (i.e., Trump would get about 500 while Biden would get 2900+).

But that's still well in the range of a statewide recount.

However, there are other counties still out. At least one of them (Gwinnett) will also add to Biden's total, but it's still going to be in the range of a few thousand votes.

When PA goes to Biden it may be a moot point anyway.

Slowly but surely.

I desire all remaining states to go to Joe! Even if not needed.

But, Alaska hasn’t been called yet. It’s only 3 EVs but it would be a big deal if he could win it.
