Well, we won't know about Nevada until November 9th.

Curious to know @HerdandHokies opinion on this.
I don’t disagree with this reasoning at all:


"If a voter properly and timely casts their vote by mailing their ballot before or on the day of the election, and through a post office omission the ballot is not postmarked, it would go against public policy to discount that properly cast vote,"

So you really DON’T care about getting the results on election night after all, correct? It’s more about getting the votes counted accurately, right?

At least in Nevada.
 
What’s the normal baseline rate of post offices omitting postmarks?

That data probably exists, right?
 
november 9th? arizona said, i'll call your november 9th and raise you to november 13th.
 
$20 says it will be notably higher than the average for this election.
$20 says you're too ethically bankrupt to admonish your best friend, Nick Goff of Huntington, for his racist, anti-semitic, homophobic, and sexist agenda, all done in a serious manner.
 
Should be able to figure that out.

If the rate of non postmarked ballots is a standard deviation or more above baseline rate then something fishy is going on.
We are talking about the USPS here. Another bankrupt govt entity. Consider it a miracle from God that we actually send/received mail.
 
top four states in population (california, texas, florida, and new york) carry around 1/3 of the total population of the US, or over 111 million people. none of the three have issues getting votes tabulated on election night.

all of the above states' total population dwarf the population of those swing states that need days to get votes counted.

 Maybe New York doesn't get called so quickly this year?
 
They have to see the score and then get the union ballots filled out to beat the score.

You really can't compare the states as if all their election laws and procedures are the same. There's some dumb laws in play, especially in PA (they can't even open early votes until election day to begin processing them). Other states have taken steps to change their dumb laws, including Nevada and Michigan.

CA is actually usually a little slow. But it's strong enough for the Dem candidate that preliminary results show the winner in the race we all care about.
 
First, this . . .




Then, this . . .



You must be using @Rock98Dog 's calculator.
