With many votes still outstanding in Michigan, here is what we know about what type of ballots are still outstanding and how long local officials in some of the biggest counties think it will take to get a completed count.
Michigan is a key state for the presidential candidates and 16 electoral votes are at stake.
Here's a look at where things stand in some key counties:
- Wayne County: CNN is still waiting for a comprehensive look from the Wayne County Clerk. But Detroit City Deputy Clerk Andre Gilbert told CNN that Detroit, the largest city in Wayne County, will have full unofficial results “probably early morning,” with Election Day votes finishing up soon, and absentee ballots taking longer. Based on the last official report CNN received from Detroit City Clerk Janice Winfrey, there are approximately 92,000 absentee ballots still outstanding in the city of Detroit.
- Macomb County: Macomb County Clerk Fred Miller told CNN that almost all Election Day votes have already been counted, amounting to approximately 190,000 votes. Miller said he is waiting on approximately 250,000 absentee ballot results. Previously, Miller had predicted to CNN that it would take until 7 a.m. Wednesday to get the county fully counted.
- Kent County: Kent County Clerk Elections Director Gerrid Uzarski said “about half” of the county’s 30 jurisdictions are fully reported. He said the biggest chunk of outstanding ballots are absentee ballots. Uzarski estimated that the county would be able to fully report its unofficial results, including mail ballots, by noon Wednesday.
- Oakland County: Oakland County Clerk Lisa Brown told CNN that the county is mostly waiting on absentee ballot results from municipalities that did not participate in the county-wide absentee counting board. Brown reported that 502,000 total ballots have been counted in the county, and 144,000 of those are absentee ballots. Brown told CNN she does not know how many votes are outstanding.
