In reply to the discussion: Latest CA Gov vote drop [View all]SSJVegeta
(3,338 posts)16. As I said: He will finish within 1% of Hilton or better (he is 2.5% away now)
There is 17% left to count. Sacramento, San Francisco and a ton of other blue counties are the primary ones left with remaining votes and they are 60% at best.
I dont know if Steyer makes it to the ballot but it is going to be really really close and Decision Desk took a major risk with this call. If they are wrong (which they very well might be), they are probably going to be out of business soon -considering this would be far from the first bad call.

With 23% of the vote left to count and the batches possibly being even more democratic leaning than this

Well I think the votes remaining even in red counties will probably favor steyer quite a bit.

It's likely they're right, but AP hasn't called it yet, and they show the exact same numbers

I mean the results are bound to be within 1 percentage point and they probably know that

Indeed. Steyer even conceded. It was correct that the more conservative counties were the deciders
