I don't have any stats to support that feeling, but if there were that many more ballots in Arizona, Georgia and Pa. Then there must be a bunch left in NC where they haven't reported any new vote sense election day. We might still have a shot at that Senate race.

(10,156 posts)2 million ballots are still out in NC. I could be wrong though

(3,490 posts)I hope youre right but its probably more like 200K outstanding votes in NC. Its possible to make up 75K votes, a long shot, but possible.

(10,156 posts)what I saw they were absentee ballots. Which could overwhelmingly favor Biden and hopefully Cunningham

(756 posts)I remain cautiously optimistic, however. Nevertheless, PA's gonna turn soon obviating the necessity for NC. I would still like it, of course.

(2,785 posts)I just said I think they still must have a bunch of ballots and haven't reported any new vote sense election day. I said nothing about any type of conspiracy.

(4,673 posts)returned. Unknown how many actually came/will come in.
NC is a serious long shot. Trump is up 77k I think.

(2,785 posts)Seems to me if Arizona a state smaller than NC has 5 or 600,000 ballots they day after the election it's reasonable to think they should have that many too or at least as many Ga which is about the same size. If there is that many ballots to count and there mail ins and Biden 70% to 75% he will win it and probably carry the senate seat with him.

(26,727 posts)Absentee and other normal mail ballots have to be returned by Election Day. Those should all be included in the current count.
Overseas military ballots can be requested up until the day before the election and can be received up until the day before the final canvas (~a week to ten days).
There shouldnt be that many of them, but theres no reason to think they will break down like the initial pool of mailed ballots.
