They almost never change the outcome, and Hoffman knew that. However, he appears to be doing rather well, so it may need to be taken into consideration.
My bet is the vote total will end up below 1000, but still a non-Hoffman win unfortunately.

It will depend upon how many ballots there are, locals where they are from, etc. I had read earlier that there were something less than 6,000 of the almost 11,000 issued absentee ballots returned. There figure will have changed as they have now reached the final turn in date. Under those numbers Hoffman would need them to break for him in a very high percentage, maybe 4 to 1 or better.
