As President-elect Joe Biden delivered his victory speech, Donald Trump goes on to say that he won and writes that he has never received so many votes for the incumbent president.

Biden Won, Trump Still Fighting: 2020 U.S. Presidential Election

Presidential elections were held in the United States on November 3. The competition between Republican Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden was very close in several states, so it was only on November 7 that it turned out that Joe Biden would be the 46th president of the United States. Follow the events and possible consequences of the prolonged presidential election on hvg.hu.

I won the elections, a lot

– This was published by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, on Twitter on Saturday afternoon in Hungarian time. He later did not acknowledge his defeat, writing shortly before midnight Hungarian time Saturday that his observers could not enter the counting rooms.

Bad things happened that our observers could not see, as they had not happened before.

The president says millions have received a ballot in the mail without even asking for it. Trump said he won the election with 71 million “legal” votes.

Twitter also issued a warning for this post. He described him once again in another tweet, receiving 71 million “legal” votes as the most reigning president.

While the vote count is still pending and Trump has demanded a recount in various places, based on Saturday night’s position, Joe Biden had 279 electoral votes (it took 270 to win), compared to 214 for Trump.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden gave his victory speech, speaking, among others, about building unity in America. “Give each other a chance,” she told everyone who didn’t vote for her.

CNN previously wrote that a traditional meeting is expected to be missed during which the outgoing president will host his successor in the Oval Office. Trump does not want to invite Bident, as he feels the election is not over yet: Although in some states the vote count is not over yet, his staff have already called for a recount in various places. This can also slow down the transfer process. Bident will be presented on January 20.
