US President Donald Trump's campaign lost court rulings in the closely-contested states of Georgia and Michigan on Thursday, even as it vowed to bring a new lawsuit challenging what it called voting irregularities in Nevada. Judge James Bass, a superior court judge in Georgia, said there was "no evidence" that the ballots in question were invalid.In the Michigan case, Judge Cynthia Stephens said: "I have no basis to find that there is a substantial likelihood of success on the merits." Election legal experts have said Trump's legal strategy is unlikely to have a decisive impact on the outcome of the election.
Votes are still being counted in all three states, among a handful of battleground states that could decide the presidency. Democratic challenger Joe Biden has a narrow lead in Nevada, Trump a narrow lead in Georgia, and Biden has been projected to win in Michigan.
While speaking to reporters at the Queen in Wilmington, Joe Biden urged for "patience" and said "every vote must count"."Cases continue to rise and our heart goes out to people. In America the vote is sacred and no one except them can decide the result. Democracy is sometimes messy, sometimes requires a little patience as well. Every vote must count," Biden said.
Later on Friday, addressing Americans from the White House Donald Trump alleged that there was election interference from ‘big media and big tech’ and said that he has won decisively.Trump alleged that if the legal votes were counted then he is the winner. He alleged that there was voter fraud and said Democrats ensured that votes that were cast for Donald Trump remain uncounted.He also said that the media falsely propagated the idea that there was a ‘Blue Wave’. He said Democrats were not able to create any such wave and claimed he has won the elections fairly.“There was election interference in the truest sense of the word, there were powerful special interests. There were phony polls to keep voters inside and create the illusion of momentum for Biden and diminish Republican’s ability to raise funds,” Trump alleged. He also called the exit polls broadcasted by several news networks ‘suppression polls’.The counting process across ballot-counting centres has been live streamed the entire time during the US presidential elections. He also said that the mail-in voting system is ‘corrupt’ and claimed that it ‘totally destroyed the voting system.’
