The Electoral College voted on Monday. President Donald Trump and his team are still fighting legal battles in key states. A reporter asked Florida’s governor to admit Joe Biden, a Democrat, as “president”, but he refused.
“It’s not for me to do.” “I would say obviously we did what we wanted to do in The state of Florida,” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis told reporters on Tuesday. (The Electoral College) took a vote. Whatever happens will happen.”
“But I can tell you, I think the frustration for a lot of people who support the president is that some people haven’t embraced him in four years.” “The Republican governor said.
“I mean, Hillary Clinton said in the last week before the election that [Vladimir] Putin stole it [the last election].” That, according to De Santis, is where a lot of people are getting frustrated about this election.
A few months earlier, in August, Mrs Clinton told reporters that Mr Biden “should not concede under any circumstances because I think this [election] is going to drag on”.
De Santis told reporters On Tuesday that Trump and his supporters believe Biden stole the election.
“I think there is something going on.” De Santis said.
Some Republicans in Congress have suggested they will contest electoral College votes in key states such as Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona. Republicans in those states say their electors voted for President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence in an effort to keep trump’s legal battles open.
Other Republicans in Congress have yet to recognize Mr. Biden. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, when asked by reporters, declined to answer.
Trump alleged on Tuesday that voting machines used in several key states were programmed to cause problems.
“Huge problems with voting machines are being discovered. They’re ridiculous. They’re ridiculous. Being able to reduce a landslide victory to a tight defeat.” He said.
The president is likely referring to evidence from 22 voting machines in Antrim County, Michigan. The report concluded that the machines had been deliberately programmed to produce considerable errors and that it was a “national security issue”.
Dominion Voting Systems, a machine maker, and its CHIEF executive, John Poulos, deny the charges. “There is no credible evidence of voter fraud or vote swapping within the Dominion system because it has not occurred,” Mr Pross said at a legislative hearing in Michigan on Tuesday.
