[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I would rather be Blair than Elrich right now if I wanted to win the election. Elrich had been relying on mail in votes cast before the polls shifted last month. Those were the ones that trended in his direction, while mail in votes made closer to the election would be like the early vote, which was decisively in Blair’s direction. Saturday’s votes broke marginally for Blair which suggests the trend has already shifted. So unfortunately for Elrich, only about 10,000 votes were made early enough to favor him while the remaining 50,000 will be more for Blair. Add in the provisional ballots, which will mainly be Republicans and Independents switching to Democrat, just to vote for Blair…. Elrich will be toast. It’s just a matter of days. I think if Blair pulls ahead in today’s count, it will be over. [/quote]

You're suggesting that the mail-in ballots are counted in the order they were received, but I don't think we know that that is what's happening.[/quote]

It’s uncertain. Naimon and Zelaya said they don’t have any way of knowing when ballots were received. [/quote]

True, but I think it's LIFO not FIFO.

DH dropped off his ballot before me, but I got the confirmation email before him.[/quote]

When did you both vote? Before or during early voting ? [/quote]
