On the state level, do the timeseries make sense? Here is a link that includes all states.

It appears every single state was reporting zero votes between midnight and 4 a.m. central standard time November 4th (?) - in many instances, at the very same moment in time.

I believe these timestamps are GMT/UTC, which is 6 hours ahead of central standard time.
