Is probably closer to 1.3 million than to 1.6 - 2.4 million.

That's because we know that of the 2.4 million unprocessed ballots, a significant number (possibly around 40 percent) will have been cast in the republican, libertarian, green, peace and freedom, and American independent primaries or cast in the democratic primary by voters who did not make a selection in the presidential primary, or were cast by NPP voters who did not elect to vote in one of the presidential primaries. And we know that some portion of the unprocessed ballots will be deemed invalid.
