Trump promised to prevent his opponent from “stealing the election” and issued a statement on election night, the night that promised a “great victory” for him.
“I am going to issue a statement tonight. A great victory,” US President Donald Trump tweeted on November 4. “We won big, but they are trying to steal the elections. We are never going to let them do that. Don’t vote after the polls close!”
Trump did not specify how the opponent “stole the election.” However, a few minutes later, Twitter hides this and labels “part or all of the content of a shared tweet that is controversial and possibly misleading about an election or other civil process.” “.

Trump is taking advantage of Democratic candidate Joe Biden in the key battlefield states of Florida and many others in today’s election. Still, Biden is hopeful about Arizona and three states, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, where it could take days to count the votes.
Biden’s hopes of an outright victory over Trump were soon dashed as the US president gained a solid lead in Florida, Georgia, Ohio and Texas. Florida is considered a must-win state if you want to get 270 Electoral College votes and become President of the United States.
Trump soon took the lead in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, but most of it was the result of direct vote on Election Day March 11, most of which were attributed to Republican voters. The vote count for the mail, mainly from Democrats, is expected to take several days. The states of Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and parts of Michigan do not get an advance ballot count before Election Day.
Biden won in Arizona, the state that once voted for Trump, giving the Democrat more of an advantage to win 270 votes in the Electoral College. Although he failed to win Pennsylvania, with victories in Arizona, the Nebraska and Michigan parliament and Wisconsin, Biden would enter the White House if he had states that Democrats lost to Trump in 2016.
Supporters of the two candidates have called for this year’s election a referendum on Trump and a volatile first term. The winner will lead the nation suffering from Covid-19, a pandemic that killed more than 231,000 and deprives millions of jobs, and racial tensions and political polarization worsened during the campaign.
Trump watched the election results with family members in the White House living room, including his wife Melania Trump, son-in-law Jared Kushner and daughter Ivanka. A source said Trump was “calm and collected.” The atmosphere there was “good, but full of anxiety,” said another senior assistant.
American voters will also decide which party controls the United States Congress in the next two years in this election. Democrats are expected to retain control of the lower house and have a slim chance of winning a majority in the upper house.
