One of the issues weve been repeatedly warned about is that with the unprecedented mail-in voting, and some States not counting the mail-in votes until Election day, is that we will not know the winner for days or weeks after November 3, 2020.

Wisconsin and Pennsylvania (2 huge swing states) plus Mississippi and Alabama do not start counting mail-in votes until Election Day.

In Pennsylvania, about 3.02 million voters have requested mail-in ballots. More than 57 percent of them have already been returned, according to the latest statistics from the Pennsylvania Department of State made available on Monday afternoon

All told, that means roughly a third of all registered Pennsylvania voters have chosen to vote by mail. There are 9,016,163 total registered voters in the state. If there's a roughly similar voter turnout to 2016, when a little over 6 million Pennsylvanians voted, that would mean roughly half of all ballots are mail-ins.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — More than 75,000 people in Wisconsin cast ballots on the first day of early in-person voting in the presidential battleground state, the state elections commission reported.

Mail-in absentee voting has been available since September and more than 1 million people have already returned their ballots that way. The combined total of mail-in and early in-person votes cast in the state thus far amounts to 34% of the total votes cast in Wisconsin during the 2016 presidential election.
