US President Donald Trump said he won the legal votes and stressed that he would not allow the election to be stolen, threatening to appeal to the Supreme Court, while Democratic candidate Joe Biden confirmed he had no doubts about winning the presidency. .
Trump stressed that he won the legal votes while Democrats are working to count the illegal votes to allow his opponent to reach the White House, as he himself put it.
The president of the United States, who aspires to a second term, added that he had surpassed his Democratic opponent, despite the “support of the media, the banks and the ridiculous polls” of the latter.
Trump described the American electoral system as corrupt and complicit with the Democrats, and said the vote by mail was a disaster that destroyed the elections. “We are waiting for what will happen and we will not allow corruption to steal these elections,” he said.
And he stressed that he would go ahead with going to the judiciary to reject Biden’s advances, even if it cost him to bring the case to the Supreme Court.
For his part, the Democratic candidate said he “has no doubts” about winning over his rival, Republican President Donald Trump.
“We still feel great about the current conditions,” Biden told reporters in his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware. “We have no doubt that with the end of the vote count, Senator Harris and I will be declared victorious.”
Biden is ahead of Trump nationally, gaining more than 50%, while Trump has remained below 48%.
Reports indicate that Biden managed to secure 264 electoral college votes, and only 6 votes would separate him from winning.
Biden is expected to win as soon as it is confirmed that he won in one of the 3 states in which the conflict has not been resolved, namely Pennsylvania, Nevada and Georgia.
The American people are waiting for the results of these states to be announced Thursday night.
Tension and demonstrations
However, the atmosphere seems very tense on the street, as the second day demonstrations by supporters from both camps were held in various cities on Thursday, with the vote counting continuing.
Biden and Trump supporters demonstrated in front of the vote-counting center in Philadelphia, in the crucial state of Pennsylvania, on Thursday morning.
Biden’s supporters rallied around the slogan “Count all votes,” as they see that counting all votes will show the Democratic nominee beating Republican President Trump.
The president’s supporters responded by calling for “vote protection” in support of his campaign efforts to cancel some categories of ballots, including those sent by mail.
Earlier, the Trump campaign said it would challenge the results of all the states that Biden recently won due to “voter fraud and state election fraud.”
He explained that he was preparing to initiate additional lawsuits in the states of Pennsylvania and Nevada, and he expected Trump to win the election on Friday night.
Trump campaign officials announced during a press conference that they had prepared a lawsuit in Nevada to challenge the votes they said were illegal, because they belonged to deceased individuals or people who moved their residence out of state in light of the pandemic. of Corona.
Judicial setback
However, some of the legal actions taken by the Trump campaign were unsuccessful, as a Michigan judge rejected the campaign’s case to stop the state’s vote count.
Judge Cynthia Stevens delivered the verdict orally during Thursday’s hearing and said she intended to deliver the verdict in writing on Friday.
And in Chatham County, Georgia, a judge dismissed a Republican lawsuit challenging the validity of dozens of late votes.
Meanwhile, CNN quoted a Trump adviser as saying the president discussed with his aides preparing for the presidential race in 2024 if he loses this election, indicating that he leaves the door open to accept defeat in the end.
And the US media reported, according to Pentagon officials, that US Defense Secretary Mark Esper prepared his resignation letter.
