he won by 2 votes each in a handful of precincts in 3 states. vote. 

I've always understood that all votes aren't counted til a while later + plus the December EC stuff, but I've never got the post day projection / exit-poll stuff. Thank you for enlightening me a bit on this!

well, tbh no votes are really counted on election day. projections are made off of samples of votes and statical models. in some states, they begin processing mail-in-ballots before in-person votes (AZ, CO, FL, NC), so they report those first. In other states like PA, urban centers are counted first and then rural (so it looks Blue-er than it ends up being). 
On election night, samples of votes from precincts are released, run through statistical models, and then a “projection” is made. Votes are then certified in early December, before the EC meets and casts their votes.  
hope that answers your question, and didn’t confuse you!
 
 
it’s a statistical model based off of 40,000 simulations of the election. 
 
its basically like saying “okay if you play Russian Roullette 100 times, you only die in 10 scenarios”. Not really the most reassuring model but hey, it’s scientifically accurate.

Yes there is, vote 

also, in regards to polls: Clinton barely broke 50% in the polls in any swing states. Biden has broken 50 by a good margin. This is important, as it signifies that in 2016 there were much more last minute voters than there will be in 2020. 
 
and don’t forget: Trump won the presidency by 2 votes per precinct in MI, PA, and WI. He was never coming into 2020 with the upper hand, but things could still cut either way rn. 
 
 

starting to think you weren’t joking when you said “Trump 2020”.
