Not sure if this is an accurate count, but I can't imagine there are enough ballots left to change much.

He needs around 60% of 80,000+ ballots.

Kornacki said that he needed 60% days ago. Since then, tRump has yet to receive 60% of the remaining votes, even though Biden’s lead is narrowing. If tRump hasn’t met the 60% threshold, the % needed of the dwindling number of remaining votes should be increasing.

Ex: let’s say there are 20 votes left and I need 60% to win, or 12. The first 10 votes are tabulated and I get only 3, with the other 7 going to my opponent. I now need to get 9 votes out of the remaining ten to get 12 votes, or 90%.
