Trump’s campaign hopes to proclaim victory on Friday 6-N, but will also ask

They challenged the recount process in the three states that gave them the keys to the White House in 2016: Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.

The re-election campaign of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, predicted this Wednesday 4-N that by Friday he will be able to proclaim a victory in the elections, despite having submitted requests in Pennsylvania and Michigan and asked for a recount in Wisconsin.

“By the end of this week, it will be clear to the whole country that President Trump and Vice President (Mike) Pence will be re-elected for another four years,” Trump’s campaign adviser Jason Miller said during a phone call with reporters. to which he allowed no questions.

Miller predicted that “as soon as Friday” it will become clear that Trump has won in Arizona, a state that various media projections have already rewarded his rival, Democrat Joe Biden.

However, Trump’s campaign insists that Arizona is still in the game and on Wednesday he asked AP and Fox News to “withdraw” their projections that Biden will take the 11 delegates from the state.

Trump’s campaign leader, Bill Stepien, also assured that the president is already clear that he has won in Pennsylvania, despite continued scrutiny in the state and things are very tight.

“We have declared a victory in Pennsylvania, and this is not based on intuition or feeling, it is based on math and we believe that things are not going to work out,” Stepien said in the same call.

His words were similar to those of Trump himself, who falsely claimed on Wednesday that he had won, despite none of the candidates having reached the threshold of 270 delegates in the constituency needed to reach the presidency.

Trump’s campaign challenged the recount process in the three states that gave him the keys to the White House in 2016: Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.

In Pennsylvania, the president’s team announced three lawsuits in a statement: the first, endorsement of the lawsuit that asks the Supreme Court to intervene to stop certain votes being counted.

That state has decided to consider valid votes in the mail that are received within three days after this Tuesday, provided the postmark confirms that they were sent within the legal deadline, which Trump’s campaign opposes.

The Supreme Court has already refused to mediate in that case before the election, but if four of its judges agree, it may be able to accept it now.

Furthermore, the Trump campaign has also filed a lawsuit to block the counting of mail order votes in Pennsylvania, considering its observers have not had access due to the location it is being conducted, a litigation almost identical to that which began in the key state. from Michigan.

Finally, the team filed a third lawsuit against state authorities’ decision to make the calendar more flexible so that first-time voters can submit the necessary identification.

“Bad things are happening in Pennsylvania. Democrats are planning to deprive voting rights and dilute Republican votes,” the campaign denounced in a statement, without providing evidence.

The Trump campaign also called for a recount on Wednesday in the state of Wisconsin, where the media projected Biden as the winner but the margin is very tight, and has filed a lawsuit to try to stop control in Michigan.
