I mean obviously you can't put out results until the polling is officially closed but you know that would leak out for sure if Biden were trailing and the exact number of votes they need to get out


Thus why I said "no counting"

You basically extend the voting the 3 days and then count.

Here is a link to how the votes are counted though

Here is the processing and counting laws for PA

The question is publishing - the polls would not be closed technically if people are still able to send in a ballot

It is ridiculous because the mail in votes can be turned in early. There is no reason to arbitrarily move the deadline of vote arrival after the election.
