I’m in Michigan, and I was planning for a higher number of votes out of Wayne County. If that is ALL the votes out of Wayne, it’s still much too close to call.

While some cities are still not yet reporting their absentees in Michigan, it’s only a small part of the vote overall. Much of the small towns already reported absentees, and only about 25% of the absentee vote is still out. Even though Biden did well in the absentee, I can’t tell if it is going to be ENOUGH to overcome in Michigan. It might not be.

I feel sick.

Biden knocked 140k off Trump’s lead and it’s down to 66k. Still many more ballots in MI to count.

Here's something from the 538 blog about PA:

Yeah, Dan, and Pennsylvania polls suggested that Biden might get support from around three-fourths of those who cast mail-in ballots, so that might be feasible.

If Pennsylvania has roughly 1.79 million major party votes out, and Biden needs to close a gap of 610,000 votes, he’ll need a 67 percent-33 percent margin among those votes to do so. According to the United States Elections Project, registered Democrats compromised 65.5 percent of all mail-in ballots returned by yesterday, although of course the outstanding ballots may not be exclusively mail.
