Votes that are counted late tend to skew Democratic, meaning it's more likely Dems will keep a small lead/reverse a small Republican lead than the other way around. On election night, Obama only was winning the popular vote 50-49, but once everything was in it stretched to 51-47.

Perhaps the Democrats win close elections because they get a majority of illegal votes from non citizens
"How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. "
