Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden won the US presidential election on the 7th (local time), but as President Donald Trump expressed his dissatisfaction, it appears that he will have to cross various portals such as recount and litigation until confirmed. the final choice.
When the results of the vote were unfavorable, President Trump, who launched a strategy of ‘dissatisfaction’ while raising a series of questions focused on competition, will not accept the results, saying, “This election is not over at all,” as stated. reports that Biden won. Clarified the meaning.
There is a prevailing perspective that President Trump’s attempts to dissent, like a lawsuit, will not change people’s options, but until the knot is finished anyway, extreme confusion will continue and the goal of the conflict will deepen.
Trump’s presidential camp has already announced that Wisconsin will require a recount. According to the Washington Post (WP), there was a difference of about 2,500 votes with Biden’s 1.63 million votes and Trump’s 1.61 million votes, and the vote was 49.4% compared to 48.8 %, with only 0.6 percentage points. Under Wisconsin state law, if the gap between candidates is less than 0.25 percentage points, the shares must be self-accounted for. If it is less than 1 percentage point, the defeated candidate can request a recount if they agree to pay the cost.
The recount begins with the direction of the local electoral commission, and the results are expected to be released later this month or early next.
However, there are many observations that it will be difficult to reverse the game in the count.

A bigger gateway is litigation battles in multiple regions simultaneously.
The recount is simply repeated mechanical work with the number of votes intact, and the chances of winning are small, but lawsuits can be a valid means of legally reversing the game by changing the ‘rules of the game’.
An attempt to vote by mail, which is evaluated as advantageous to candidate Biden, is invalid for several reasons.
It seems that the ruling that if you take the case to the Federal Supreme Court, you can play a game in the Supreme Court, which has an absolute advantage in the payment.
The Trump Camp side has questioned the validity of vote-by-mail, which has become a game changer in the presidential election, and has put forward a framework of ‘voter fraud’ in some areas.
The camp filed lawsuits the day before in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
In Michigan and Pennsylvania, they filed lawsuits to stop counting and claimed that Republican observers were not adequately contacted during the counting process.
Georgia demanded that votes by mail that exceed the deadline not be included.
However, in Michigan and Georgia, the sentences were thrown out at the first trial.
The state of Nevada was also included in the lawsuit. The camp claimed that people who did not live in Nevada participated in the vote.
In particular, in Pennsylvania, regarding the extension of the deadline for filing a mail ballot, Trump Camp said he would be involved as part of the lawsuit while a lawsuit was pending in the Federal Supreme Court to determine whether the Court’s ruling State Supreme rejected the lawsuit against the Republican Party in the region was legal.
The lawsuit was filed on the 23rd of last month. The request for an expedited hearing before the presidential elections was rejected, but the Supreme Court is still considering whether to accept the request for legality.
The situation can be complicated if the Federal Supreme Court decides that there is a problem with the decision of the State Supreme Court that decides to hear the case and extend the deadline for voting by mail. Due to the nature of the United States as a state of jurisprudence, the extension of votes by mail in other states could be challenged on similar grounds, which may affect other complaints.
The Federal Supreme Court has an absolute lead on the Conservatives of 6 Conservatives and 3 Liberals, and some observers say it is to President Trump’s advantage if it is concluded according to political leanings.
However, experts noted that fierce litigation may delay the determination of the winner, but is unlikely to change the outcome, Reuters reported.
According to the Associated Press, December 8 is the deadline for resolving election disputes by state. The count and the court battle must be completed by this day.
There is also the possibility that the electoral group will not be confirmed in time due to the demand. In this case, it may not be possible to determine the person chosen at the time of voting for the December 14 elections.
In addition, if the legislature is called to count the electoral votes on January 6 of next year, if there is a dispute over the legitimacy of some electoral groups, none of the candidates will be able to vote for the electoral majority.
If there is no majority vote, the House of Representatives elects the President and the Senate elects the Vice President.
Some observers say that the possibility of affecting the president’s inauguration schedule cannot be ruled out in the worst situation that follows one after another.
