The daily press conference at the Clark County Elections Department is kicking off now. I'll be live tweeting the highlights here, so follow along!
Clark County Registrar Joe Gloria says when he said that there were 51,000 ballots being processed yesterday to be reported today, that was incorrect. There were actually only a little over 30,000 (the number reported this morning.)
They inadvertently reported the number of page numbers that needed to be counted, not the number of individual ballots. However, the 63,000 number that he gave yesterday (of mail ballots left to be counted) is correct.
Gloria said that the county will now be providing results TWICE a day. He said to expect those results to come out sometime before 4 p.m.
Gloria says he expects the county to start counting the 60,000 provisional ballots it has today, however, it is waiting on instructions from the secretary of state's office to match against voter registration records for the other 16 counties.
Voters that needed to provide ID with their ballot have until 5 p.m. today to do that. The county has said there are about 44,000 ballots that fall into that universe.
As a reminder, there were 63,262 mail ballots that remained to be counted as of yesterday, which the county is still working through. Gloria says that the county received an additional 241 mail ballots this morning from the U.S. mail.
There are also ballots that still need to have their signatures cured. That needs to happen by Nov. 12. As of yesterday, the county had that cohort at 2,100 ballots.

In summary, this is the universe of ballots that could still be counted in Clark:

- 63,262 mail (b/w Election Day drop off, USPS from ED/Wed, + ballots pending prior to ED)
- 241 NEW mail added to that total today
- 60,000 provisional
- 44,000 ID-required
- 2,100 need sig cure
There's been a lot of confusion at this press conference: Joe Gloria, Clark County registrar, mentioned two separate universes of mail ballots yesterday: 51k that were being processed yesterday and that other 63k that were not yet being processed.
That 51k number was wrong, because it referred to PAGES, not individual ballots. In reality, there were about 30K ballots. That was what was reported out of Clark County this morning.

Hi (hello) again! Time for me to (again) briefly take of my election hat and put on my COVID hat to provide you the daily COVID-19 numbers in Nevada... as I have been doing every day (including holidays and weekends!) since June...!
Nevada COVID-19 updates for 11/5:

🧪 Test positivity remains high. Cumulative test positivity is 12.70%; avg daily test positivity is 22.31%.

🏥 COVID-19 hospitalizations are at 740, +46 from the previous day and our first time above 700 since late August.
😷 Cases continue to climb statewide. We're sitting at a seven-day average of about 958 new cases reported each day as of yesterday. At the peak over the summer, our highest seven-day average was 1,176.

Some back of napkin math: There are ~114k mail and ~60k provisional in Clark. Clark mail today went 2-1 for Biden; data shows same-day registrants were about 50-50 D/R so...

Biden: 76k mail + 30k prov = 106k
Trump: 38k mail + 30k prov = 68k

In this scenario, +38k for Biden.
We know there are 190k votes left statewide, so ~16k non-Clark votes.

If Biden is able to get the same share from Clark mail as he did today... you can see how this math is really difficult for Team Trump, even if they won 100% of the non-Clark votes.
I’m oversimplifying, but you can play around with these numbers and see why Nevada still should be Biden’s to lose despite the narrow, 11k vote, less than a percentage point margin he has right now.

Gloria says he is hoping that the bulk of Clark County's ballots will be read by Saturday or Sunday this weekend.

NEW: Washoe County Registrar Deanna Spikula says Washoe County will NOT be posting any new results today. The next result update won't happen until tomorrow morning.
This after we were previously told this morning that we WOULD receive results by 10 a.m. this morning. She says the county has been focused on processing the mail-in ballots they received yesterday, verifying signatures, etc.
Spikula said there was nothing new to report at 10 a.m. this morning and described the fact that the county had said there would be a 10 a.m. update as a "communication error." She said no new results had come in overnight.
