I think that is what is behind it. If the Rat counties don’t know how many ballots to produce, they will have a more difficult time in their fraudulent efforts to give Biden a victory.
I remember watching votes come in during the Maine governor’s race, LePage’s last race. A couple of far-left wards were holding their votes back. It wasn’t until the last remote Pub counties reported, and the lead was too big to cover with fraud did the liberal counties report.
