Biden’s team accuses Trump of trying to “invalidate” the votes in the US

“Counting will not stop. It will continue until all the votes cast correctly have been counted, ”said Biden’s adviser Jen O’Malley Dillon.

Democratic candidate Joe Biden’s campaign accused his rival, President Donald Trump, on Wednesday, November 4, of attempting to “invalidate” the votes of millions of Americans with his fraud allegations, and assured him that it was ready. for litigation.

“The president’s statement tonight that he attempted to stop the counting of votes cast correctly was outrageous, unprecedented and wrong,” Jen O’Malley Dillon, Biden’s campaign manager, said in a statement.

He added that this is a “flagrant attempt to take away the democratic rights of US citizens”, something a US president “never” did, and promised this “will not happen.”

“Counting will not stop. It will continue until all duly cast votes have been counted, “Biden’s adviser said.

“If the president keeps his threat of trying to prevent the correct tabulation of votes, we have legal teams ready to step in and resist that attempt. And they will prevail, ”O’Malley Dillon warned.

The Democratic candidate’s campaign thus reacted to Trump’s extraordinary statements, that this Wednesday he prematurely proclaimed his victory, despite the counting continued, and denounced that there was a “fraud” against him, without providing evidence.

“We will go to the Supreme Court. We want the whole voting process to stop, “Trump announced at around 2:30 am Wednesday from the party he had organized at the White House, with about 150 guests.

His remarks came after key states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin warned that it would take more hours and even days to count all the votes, in part due to the increased volume of voting in the mail following the pandemic.

The Trump campaign has questioned the procedures established in Pennsylvania, where postal votes received within three days after this Tuesday will be valid, provided the postmark confirms that they were sent within the legal deadline.

In the absence of any results or projections from the media in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia and Alaska, Biden adds at least 236 delegates to Electoral College, up from the 213 amassed by Trump, in their common goal of reaching the 270 that give victory.
