(10,971 posts)Trump is seriously underperforming to catch Biden. Trump needed to be hitting 58/59 to overtake, this split was 53/44.
The only big batch of pro-Biden ballots left is Pinal, which has about 29K. Pinal broke 58/40 earlier today.

(10,472 posts)But the thing is, every time he comes up short with what's needed to close the gap, it nudges the % needed on the next batch.
70,000 just came in, Trump needed 60% to start turning the tide, but he came up short, 55%. Now he needs to hit a little north of 60% on the rest.

It looks like Biden is going to win Arizona.

(6,008 posts)Before the last drop, trump had to win the remaining votes 59/41, after the last batch, he did gain ground, but he's got to win the rest by 65/35. Every time he fails to clear the margin, the margin goes up for the next batch and it just makes it harder to catch up by the end.

Final vote 10,016. Damn! I was off by 16. I need to rethink my calculation methods.

(5,499 posts)I don't see that there are enough votes left. I think they can call it as well.
