There were literally tons of paper-write-in ballots that states had to count in the middle of the night, last night. Some states still have not tabulated all of the mail-in ballots. Each state has a different way of doing it, according to their state laws. States’ Rights, and all. Some states counted mail-in ballots as they came in over the last couple weeks. Other states put mail-in ballots under armed guards and were counted only last night.
