Two weeks into Summer down here.
It was fucking 14 deg C (57 F) yesterday, today 17 degrees C (63 F).
We could do with some Glurbal Warmening
They thought they were the hammer, then they got the sickle.
Where is Homer with "Mr Plow"
Stop noticing things
Was it a fully automatic assault car?
Not overly true.
But they are the kinds of chicks you want to talk to and have a reasonable discussion (technical or otherwise) with instead of boning.
My best DBAs and data engineers are chicks.
New Incentive Plan:
Work or get Fired.
Alright. Now that is done maybe they'll finally give Elon his launch permits for Starship.
Orange Rocket Good
Wayne King needs a job, though probably better suited to CNN zoom calls
Or they are about to goal seek at ~ 46% from here on out.
They sure are slow walking the Pima and Maricopa counts
That is the early ballots column.
Estimated total number of uncounted ballots column (370.3k now) is combined total left
(remaining early + provisional + "ready" (election day) ballots)
And yet Maricopa last drop.
16,000 early ballots and 63000 election day ballots consumed
74,951 tabulated (so 4049 went poof)
Went 46% for Lake.
(at least I guess there are supposedly only 13000 early ballots and 7885 provisionals left against 254,000 election day ballots)
If https://apps.arizona.vote/info/bps/2022-general-election/33/0 can be trusted
449,397 ballots uncounted,
84,171 early ballots left
16,517 provisional ballots left
Remaining 377,708 are from election day
Say those provisional and early only go 35% for Lake, she would need 53.5% of the election day ballots to (just) get over the line
OK Riddle me this. Maricopa goes from
64.3% counted with 1010297 votes (implies 1,571,224 total vote pool)
67.7% counted with 1064893 votes (implies 1,572,959 total vote pool)
Last drop
74.9% counted with 1125969 votes (implies 1,503,296 total vote pool)
Counted votes went up 61,076 (55% for Hobbs)
Somehow the implied total for vote pool dropped by 69,662...
ie: 4% of the total vote pool went poof
No drops from Maricopa since UTC 09:40 ... ie: near 11 hours ago.
Ballot printer go brrrrrrrr
They've gone to sleep in Maricopa, no vote drops now for over 12 hours...
Just adding up the totals on RCP
Lake 890795, Hobbs 902521... 11726 the difference with 69% reporting.
My spreadsheet is telling me Lake gets in with 51% of the remaining vote.
14:36 UTC
35227 vote drop in Pinal County (now at 89.9%)
76% of that drop to Lake (26787 to 8440)
11.7k votes the difference now, with Lake needing the remaining to come in at just under 51%
Bullshit
30k the difference now (12:54 UTC)
The drops since 08:45 UTC (when it was ~74k difference) coming in at ~60% Lake
Lake needs 52% of the remaining vote
Just as long as the water mains hold up... better get some plumbers at the ready.
Last drop in Pima (between 51.6% count and 54.2%) went 67.5% for Lake.
Interesting. AZ, between 08:35Z and 9:40Z
Maricopa: Lake + 38554, Hobbs + 16042 ie: Lake with 70% of that drop
For the whole state: Lake + 67766, Hobbs +31259 ie: Lake with 68%
Around 37k votes behind now with momentum
Fucking Alan Joyce.
This was because he destroyed QANTAS, well before COVID.
