1. it wont be reversed

its a small numbers of votes that are already dwarfed by Biden's lead.

3. How many votes were mailed November 3rd

And have not yet been delivered by the Post Office? Who will they trend towards?

5. Not gonna happen. They look at outstanding ballots vs registrations

That gives them an idea of what still looms based on trends and probability. 10000 trump voters aren’t just gonna pop out of nowhere and appear.

2. same here. Just announce the final electoral count.

Don't project. Report. State.

I've heard the analysts and the number crunchers. Run some music videos or get me some live footage about an earthquake in Asia or whatever, but get me a REPORTER when there's something to report.
