Just going to piggy-back on this comment because it seems like a good one, but... I've been trying to find out more about the raw data that the chart here was compiled from. This is the true raw NYT/Edison data; but this also seems to be batch update data organized into a rudimentary chart form.

The label on the tweet in question says that at 6:31 AM, there was a sudden spike of 134,886 Biden votes. The chart also shows that at that time, Biden had a total vote count in the high-2.1 million mark.

When I look at the raw data in the other (rudimentary) chart, when Biden is in the 2.1 millions, there's a batch update of +139,902 for him (not far off from the other chart's/label's 134,886) @ 04:04 on Nov. 4, bringing him up to 2.269 million total — with only about 9,000 more for Trump. Then @ 04:22, Biden suddenly loses 58,000 votes, and Trump 40,000, before gaining roughly the same number back on the next update a couple of minutes later.

I suppose these could be different web scrapes (the other one I'm looking at actually isn't labeled). But I'm curious about some of the discrepancies.
