Good Morning!
Let’s get to the game!
The data I am using comes directly from Michael McDonald’s website: electproject.github.io/...
Virginia and Wisconsin both were the first to cross 300K votes
Virginia is the first state to cross 600K votes
The third game is, which state will cross 900K votes first or 30% of its 2016 total vote?
We’ve reached a point where more votes disadvantage smaller states, so adding in the percentage of the 2016 total vote makes it fair.
Below are a list of states that have vote return totals in McDonald’s system (Estimated population in parentheses)

This will be a daily game. So when more states start reporting returned ballots, I’ll add them to the list.
All these totals are based on end of the day totals from last night, since the updates occur throughout the day.
3 millions vote surpassed nationwide!
