9. it's closer than i'd hoped for

and according to the NY times map, it's not called yet.

10. heard on NPR they are counting absentee/provisional ballots, that's the holdup.

Pfft!

Ah well. Might still go blue.

Or not.

[dweller]

13. expect a ruling or final tally whatever

by the 25th Nov.

just heard on the evening news. But they also pointed out provisionals normally trend w/ the general tallies, and don't change outcomes. Repugs have no plans to challenge outcome.

so, NC will most likely be BLUE. eventually.
