PRELIMINARY AND INCOMPLETE, but it looks like the swing toward Biden came mostly from the suburbs.

To my eye, Biden is likely hitting the targets he needs in PA counties to be on track to finish ahead. And recounts don’t typically overturn the margins we’re likely to see for him in MI/WI.
If Biden does prevail in MI/PA/WI, then AZ/GA/NV wouldn’t matter to the outcome.
