The popular vote margin keeps on narrowing--it's now at 2.71%. I guess the provisional ballots are favoring the Democrats.

Not necessarily.  If both sides receive, say 1 million additional votes (evenly divided), the marginal percentage will decrease.  If, however, the absentee ballots, provisional ballots, etc break along the same national percentage, then the marginal percentage will stay the same.
