Pennsylvania, where Trump was leading Biden by about half a million votes as of Wednesday afternoon, will continue to accept military ballots until Nov. 10.
In 2016, 7,788 members of the military voted by mail in Pennsylvania, according to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
"I'll also just remind everyone, military and overseas ballots are not due until a week after Election Day," Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar said at a news conference Wednesday. "We want to make sure that not only every civilian absentee mail-in valid voter is counted but also that every man and woman who are serving our country, that their votes are counted."
Nevada, where 2,677 troops voted absentee in 2016, also has a Nov. 10 deadline for the ballots to arrive. Biden holds a slim lead in the state after all Election Day votes were counted, and just absentee and provisional ballots remain to be tallied.
In North Carolina, service members' ballots can arrive as late Nov. 12. As of Wednesday afternoon, Trump maintained a lead of about 75,000 votes over Biden that is expected to be hard for the Democratic nominee to overcome.
The state's election division said in statistics released Wednesday that 9,749 military absentee votes have already been cast. The number returned already surpassed 2016, when 6,317 troops cast absentee ballots in North Carolina, according to the Election Assistance Commission.
In Georgia, military ballots must be postmarked by Election Day and arrive by Friday. Trump was ahead of Biden by less than 2 percentage points as of Wednesday, but ballots from heavily Democratic areas around Atlanta have yet to be counted, leaving Democrats hopeful the race will swing Biden's way.
In 2016, military voters cast 5,203 absentee ballots in Georgia, according to the Election Assistance Commission. That means, Noland said, "if the race comes down to the wire, those ballots could make a difference."
