Him and Gillum both have a narrow shot...
This logic also works -but more to the extreme, with Beto in Texas where Webb County has a few hundred thousand more votes to count and he is ahead 70%.

The result is the same. I also wonder how much of the absentee and provisionals are counted so far. My guess is there are still quite a few.
