Just a simple question, maybe someone could explain it for me
How is it that most states shown 65% votes in were already determined to be won by a candidate but a state with 90% or even 99% still isnt? Yes i get that it could be by how close the vote diffrence is but at 65% that could still swing either.
I would rather see no state awarded till all votes are counted or award them and flip when more votes come in. Just seems a little off.
Idk not tryn to be partial just a legitimate question

Fair question!
States record the ballots sent out (as recorded) against the actual population count (assuming every person receives a ballot)
So essentially, if Person A has a 60 vote lead, and there are only 20 ballots/people remaining to cast a vote, it is impossible for Person B to make up the difference, hence why some states can call it early.
In addition, if states already counted in person ballots first and all that are remaining are mail in and/or absentee ballots, it is mathematically impossible for Person B to garner any more votes to bridge the 60 vote gap
Just straight math in all honesty
