Washington: Within 24 hours of Joe Biden’s first tweet acknowledging his victory on Sunday, US President Donald Trump has once again claimed victory. In one of his tweets, Trump wrote, “I won the election.”
Earlier on Sunday, however, his Democratic rival Joe Biden appeared to be conceding victory, but indicated that he would not bow down and would continue to try to challenge “irregularities” in the election results.
Democrats accused of electoral fraud without evidence
The president’s announcement comes at a time when he and his administration are constantly accusing Democrats of electoral fraud without proof. Trump tweeted, “He (Biden) won because the election was rigged. No supervisor was allowed. Dominion, a far-left privately owned company, was tasked with tabulating votes that had a bad reputation and was done with substandard equipment that did not work well for the Texas election (in which I won by a large margin). Fake and silent media. ”
Biden received 306 electoral college votes out of 538, while Trump received 232 electoral college votes
In India, where the Election Commission announces the results, in the US presidential election, all the 50 states verify the different results, which takes several days. News media institutes traditionally announce the results of the presidential election on the basis of election counting trends and unofficial results, which marks the beginning of the transfer of power. Biden won 306 of the 538 electoral college votes, according to the latest count of electoral college votes. Trump has won 232 electoral college votes.
Election results challenged
The Trump campaign has challenged election results in several states, including Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan, Georgia and Arizona. He has also demanded a recount in Wisconsin. In another tweet, Trump said, “He (Biden) only lives in the eyes of fake news media. I do not bow down to anyone. We will continue our efforts. It was a rigged election. ” “We will win,” Trump said.
