Result of the US elections: Trump and Biden are locked in a tight race for the White House.
New Delhi / Washington:
US President Donald Trump claimed Wednesday that he had won the US election and, accusing his rival Joe Biden’s Democrats of “fraud,” declared that he would go to the Supreme Court to dispute the vote count. “We were about to win, in fact, we already won,” Trump said in an extraordinary speech from the White House.
“We were winning in many other states and we were about to declare it and then all of a sudden this fraud happened there. A fraud against the American people. And we will not let this happen,” said the president of the United States, assuring that he would go to the court and “we want the voting to stop.” It seemed to mean stopping the counting of mail-in ballots, which can be legally accepted by state boards of elections after Tuesday’s election, provided they are mailed on time.
“So, we’re going to go to the US Supreme Court and make sure that suddenly no new ballots are mysteriously found at 4am and added to your tally. Frankly, this is an embarrassment to the United States and to the millions of Americans, “he said. .
With Vice President Mike Pence and First Lady Melania Trump by his side, the president said Republicans were about to celebrate a “beautiful” victory when “suddenly something happened.”
“But we are not going to let them get away with it. We were about to celebrate something so beautiful. The results have been phenomenal … we are surely going to win. We are way ahead in the states where the numbers keep coming in. Never. they will never catch up with us, “he said.
He added that Republicans were winning in almost every state where it was counted and that would be a huge margin too. “We don’t even need all of them, but we keep winning.”
Election results for some battle states, including Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia, are still unclear, and projections from major networks show that Trump has yet to reach the 270 electoral votes needed to win reelection.
Trump won the key states of Florida, Ohio and Texas, erasing Biden’s hopes of a decisive early victory.
Earlier, the Democratic presidential candidate claimed that he is on track to win the election.
“Keep the faith guys. We’re going to win this (election),” Biden, 77, told a crowd in his hometown of Delaware.
