President Donald Trump demanded that election officials stop the ballot-counting process particularly in key battleground states including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
On Thursday, Trump tweeted “STOP THE COUNT!” as he sees his lead in Georgia and Pennsylvania are slowly declining in the presidential race against former Vice President Joe Biden.
STOP THE COUNT!

“ANY VOTE THAT CAME IN AFTER ELECTION DAY WILL NOT BE COUNTED!” Trump later tweeted.

As election officials continue counting mail-in ballots, Trump’s path to re-election is becoming narrower. The media already projected that Biden will win Wisconsin and Michigan. His campaign is filing lawsuits demanding a recount in Wisconsin, to stop the ballot-counting process in Michigan where they claimed that they were not given enough access in numerous locations to observe.
