Garrett Archer, a data analyst for ABC 15 tweeted about a vote counting error which resulted in Biden getting 6000 more votes than he should have. Interestingly, an error in Michigan where a voting machine switched votes from Trump to Biden was also an error of 6000 votes.
The error is blamed on a faulty upload in Greenlee county showed a log of 22,110 votes should have been only 3,723 votes.
Getting this in now:

State…UNOFFICIAL results have Biden and Trump separated by 4,202 votes right now.
This morning it was 10,377. The difference?
A faulty upload from Greenlee county.
They show 22,110 votes. Should be 3,723

The change drops Biden’s unofficial lead from over 10,000 votes to just 4,202 votes.
Unofficial election results were displaying incorrectly briefly today due to an uploading error that posted Greenlee County's results multiple times while uploading write-in candidate info. The error has been corrected. https://t.co/npEPjTdFP3

We checked out Secretary Hobbs claim that the error had been corrected. As of this writing, the totals on the official Arizona website still shows Joe Biden ahead of President Trump by over 10,000 votes.
