Lake started the night down by 9 points after the first count. She’ll end it with a lead. It’s a small lead, but everything’s moving in the right direction for her.
If they are counting ED votes before early ballot drop offs (which seems to be the case in Maricopa, I don’t know elsewhere) and the early ballot drop offs break down similar to the ones mailed in, KTR will gain.
We just need to stop treating ballot counting like a horse race. KTR was never “9 points ahead”. This frame is what gives election deniers reasons to claim fraud.
