Secondary aggregation of reported early in-person ballots and mail returns. The source update time is not a county reporting cutoff; county reports can lag. Mail returns do not establish acceptance or tabulation. Projected final turnout, remaining-ballot estimates and modeled party margins are excluded. A reported zero is the publisher’s value, not proof of complete reporting.
