Genesee County does not have 100% votes in

My county, Genesee, still has precincts yet to record. I know that one or two voting places ran out of ballots in Flint by mid afternoon.
I'm trying to find out which areas have not reported yet....

To make every one who voted for Bernie look like fools for their victory lapses?

Or the votes were so against her as to flip Flint to Bernie?

Well, the Mayor supported Hillary!

...even if they all went to Hillary.

Assumption:
Counted precincts average the same size as uncounted precincts.

Counted Votes/Counted Precincts = 265
265*16=4240

But I am trying to find the specific precincts withholding results.
Maybe the city of Flint precincts, or surrounding townships...
I'm curious - what if it was MY precinct!!

All you needed to do was go down to where the maps are. Hover over the county and you would have gotten the information you needed. Sorry I didn't make that a bit more clear.

In Genesee County, 86.76% reporting
Clinton with 25,510 votes, Sanders with 23,430.

Statewide, Clinton has 570,949 and Sanders has 590,386, a difference of almost 20,000 votes.
So, Sanders will still be the winner, but probably by a narrower margin once all ballots are counted.

7. Sorry, no. Unofficial Genesee results:

https://co.genesee.mi.us/currentelectionsresults/summary.htm

With 93% in, there's only a 4% edge over 50,000 votes. So there aren't even 20,000 votes left, and certainly not a 20,000 vote swing for Hillary.

And the only change that will happen when the votes are tallied, is that the margin between Sanders and Clinton will shift slightly.
