US Election: ‘I Concede Nothing’ – Trump Vows To Contest Biden’s Victory

In spite of his earlier acknowledgement of Joe Biden’s victory in the on going polls, United States President Donald Trump has said he is not conceding the presidential election.

He had for the first time, admitted that Biden won but claimed the election was rigged.

“He won because the Election was Rigged. NO VOTE WATCHERS OR OBSERVERS allowed,” he had written via his Twitter handle.

But as the statement went viral, he said Biden was victorious “in the eyes of the fake news media.”

“He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING! We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED ELECTION!” he wrote.

Biden was declared president-elect after polling more than 270 electoral votes, the threshold needed to win.

But Trump has maintained his stance that “the election is far from over” since the time Biden was announced the winner.

“The simple fact is this election is far from over. Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor,” he had said in a statement.
