They were all supposed to be counted this morning, Thursday. Yet he took the defeat. What if those absentee ballots put him over the top? Then what?
It just seems that our absentee ballots aren't counting for anything. It really upsets me.
I've been wondering about the absentee ballots too.
"I'd like to know where all those absentee ballots went!

The absentee ballots do not have to be actually counted to determine the winner. The total number of absentee ballots is known and if that number were applied to the losing candidate and it still would not be enough to exceed the other candidate, the winner is known without counting them at that time. The winner would be known, and the absentee ballots would be counted later for a final tally of votes for each candidate.
They were included in the total. What still needed to be counted were the provisional ballots. Those tend to go Democrat.
This is why I will crawl over broken glass to get to the polls ON ELECTION DAY.
