That includes Erie County, which swung toward Trump in 2016 and plans to begin counting in-person votes when the polls close at 8 p.m., followed by tabulating absentee ballots around 11 p.m., according to Carl Anderson III, the chair of the Erie Board of Elections. Erie is planning to stop counting ballots around 2 a.m. on November 4 and restart later that morning. Anderson said there's a concern if the mail-in ballots are reported first, the results "out of the gate could look pretty skewed," because those votes were expected to be heavily Democratic, based on ballots requested, and the county was trying to mitigate that effect.

Cumberland County should be reliably red. Across the river is the dem stronghold in Harrisburg. The west shore which compromises cumberland county is republican. Cumberland county is mostly rural and it also has the army war college located within its boundary.

Weak.

So instead of “skewing” early in the night and clearly explaining this was expected, you want to wait until one candidate may believe they’ve won and then swipe it from him with your “skewed” numbers? F’ing morons
