Are these precincts reporting to the NYT before they report to the SOS? Where is NYT getting these numbers?

Our estimates are based on the results reported so far, the results of previous elections and demographic data. Unlike reported results, they attempt to account for precincts that have not yet reported their votes. The shaded area in the gauge below shows the range of our forecasts.

I don’t know, but sometimes I notice that there math is bad on Percent reporting. I used a calculator to confirm it. Other times it is ok.
