0:48Now PlayingA top Georgia elections official said Wednesday that the remaining uncounted ballots likely lean Democratic, meaning Ossoff may avoid a recount.
Elections official Gabriel Sterling said that the outstanding ballots include 60,000 mail ballots that arrived just before the Tuesday deadline, 14,000 overseas and military ballots that can be received as late as Friday and about 10,000 provisional ballots filed by voters who ran into a problem on Election Day.
Democrats heavily favored voting by mail this year and many of the uncounted ballots are from Democratic-leaning urban areas.
“It makes it look like Jon Ossoff will likely have a margin outside half a percent, to avoid a recount,” Sterling said.
