What’s up with the Pennsylvania Senate race? Early this morning, NBC and other sources were indicating that there were just over 80,000 votes to count. Now suddenly NBC shows there are 129,000 uncounted votes!

If accurate, this surely is good news for Senator Bob Casey’s prospects!

It’s baffling how often that number has changed. PA needs a way more transparent elections system

Worth noting: Decision Desk HQ has slightly different numbers from NBC, and shows Casey having reduced McCormick’s lead to 25,740 votes. However, they don’t post a figure for uncounted votes.

I’m hoping Stephen Mikalik will weigh in. He seems to have good sources and a good overview.

Agreed; there are way too many speculative numbers being thrown around; oh, fuck McCormick and his junior high school whining (apologies for the language but it's irritating to get constant whining from that hypocritical POS)

This spreadsheet - which based on some of the comments in the cells, seems to be based on actually calling the counties suggests its less than 60k now.

Incidentally, sometime in the past couple of hours DecisionDesk called PA.

I wish some official would make a definitive estimate at this stage.
