If you have different info on the Provisionals not being counted, I would love to see it.

but theres nothing saying that they're not going to count those ballots. With the attention on this issue in AZ, I don't see how they couldn't count these ballots.
We'll find out soon enough.

I don't think they have a realistic option to not count them.

I believe they finished earlier this week. They declared Barber the winner after the count was completed in Pima, I believe, and I think I read that Maricopa completed its count as well - I think I saw it on Kyrsten Sinema's FB announcement. I may be imagining though.

Including the provisionals which were eligible. If you have any questions about this contact Ann Wallack, Chair of the Maricopa County Democratic party. They had observers and they reported no problems. The counting is over.

Total number of votes cast was 1,390,836 votes. Something isn't matching for me.
