( Unsplash ) HARRISBURG - Counting an avalanche of mail-in votes began a third day in Pennsylvania on Thursday as some races from Tuesday’s primary remained too close to call.
The Associated Press has not called a number of races where the contest was close or had a large number of votes yet to be counted, or both.
Those races included several where incumbent state lawmakers trailed in the count and the only competitive primary among the statewide races, a six-way Democratic primary contest for auditor general.
