WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump alleged Wednesday that there had been “surprise ballot dumps” in the states where he had led Democrat Joe Biden in the White House race.

“Last night he was leading, often solidly, in many key states, in almost every case controlled and controlled by the Democrats,” Trump tweeted. “Then one by one, they began to magically disappear as the surprise dumps were counted.”

Trump offered no evidence for his “ballot” allegation and there have been no reports of wrongdoing.

The tracks in numerous states have shifted back and forth between candidates as votes are counted.

As it stands, Biden has won 238 electoral votes and Trump a maximum of 213, depending on the states they have won so far.

Barack Obama’s Vice President was buoyed by Arizona’s incorporation in the early hours of Wednesday morning as the two men try to fight their way to the magic number of 270 out of a total of 538.

That leaves the battlefields of Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin up in the air, as well as the easier-to-predict states of Alaska (Republican) and Nevada (Democrat).

Meanwhile, Biden promised Wednesday that his campaign will not “rest until all the votes are counted” in the US election after President Donald Trump sought Supreme Court intervention to halt the counting process.

“We will not rest until everyone’s vote is counted,” Biden said on Twitter.

While Biden has expressed confidence in his chances, President Trump has gone a step further, already proclaiming victory and saying he will go to the Supreme Court to get his way.

The Republican said in a speech at the White House that “we want all voting to stop,” which apparently means he wants to stop the counting of mail-in ballots that can be legally accepted by state boards of elections after Tuesday’s election. .
