Well, the absentee ballots were nearly a third of the votes, so I don't know about margin of victory. I know some of them get counted. I don't know if they count enough to get to that point or not. But I do know that they take into consideration the area they come from. So, if a conservative proposition is winning, they are more likely to make sure that the votes are counted from the more liberal counties and vice versa. Obviously, if the liberal counties push it over, they will need to count the others as well.
For example, if a conservative measure is winning by 400,000 votes, they might leave 800,000 votes uncounted from a conservative region, since it is far more likely to just increase the lead.
I agree that it is theoretically possible for every absentee ballot in a conservative area to be a liberal vote, but it's unlikely.
