Watching MSNBC, they showed an election map and NC hasn't been called........

1. they stopped announcing reulsts til the mail in ballot deadline (nov 12) nt

2. They're waiting for ballots to arrive.

Under NC law, they can’t start counting until Nov. 12. They’re just in a holding pattern.

3. I think they are waiting for the mail in deadline. IIRC, NC accepts anything postmarked by

Election day and received by the 12th to be counted.

4. They are accepting mailin ballots

until 11/12, then will finish counting, certify by 11/23 I think ...

9. Are you saying they haven't counted any of the mail in Ballots?

[marylandblue]

13. As I understand it, no they haven't, but it's possible they are counting without releasing results.

Laws on that vary by state and don't always make sense.

14. They've already counted all the mail in ballots received by election day

It’s the ones received after Tuesday that are outstanding. I don’t know if they’ve started processing these yet and nobody seems to know how many there are. In any event, the results won’t be reported until sometime after the 12th.

15. Thank you.

6. thanks everyone

7. Everyone is correct, but you have to wonder...

Why is counting ballots received after Election Day OK in states that Trump is likely to win, but not OK in states where he’s losing?

Speaking from NC...

8. can you tell me what's going on with the Senate there?

[russiamommy]

12. At the moment Tillis is up

But everything is on hold. I suspect the lead will hold. 😢

11. You can bet that if the votes go in Biden's way they

will become a problem.

[Rice4VP]

10. Hopefully those ballots flip it for Biden and the

Democrat running for senate

16. Here is a link to press releases from the NC BoE

https://www.ncsbe.gov/news/press-releases/2020/11/09/7-county-boards-elections-counting-additional-votes-today

Various county boards processed about 3200 absentee ballots today and 4750 absentee ballots last Friday. Absentee ballots continue to trickle in and will be counted through Nov 12th.

There are still about 94,900 absentee ballots that were requested but not returned outstanding. It's anybody's guess how many of those will be returned at this point. Lots of people may have requested an absentee ballot and decided to vote in person.
