The New Diplomat in its live updates on the US elections had reported that the outcome is becoming too close to call as results are being awaited in a number of the battle ground states.
In the build-up to the election, Trump has been raising concerns about electoral fraud, especially on the mail-in ballots as oppositions continue to dismiss his allegations.
Now, Trump is leaving nothing to chance, meaning winner in the election would remain unclear for weeks/months if Trump challenges the Tuesday’s presidential election.
Trump told reporters: “This is a fraud on the American public. This is an embarrassment to our country. We were getting ready to win this election.
“Frankly, we did win this election. We did win this election. So our goal now is to ensure the integrity for the good of this nation. This is a very big moment. This is a major fraud in our nation.
“We want the law to be used in a proper manner. So we’ll be going to the US Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop.

“We don’t want them to find any ballots at four o’clock in the morning and add them to the list. Okay? It’s a very sad moment. To me this is a very sad moment and we will win this. And as far as I’m concerned, we already have won it.”
