The president spoke to reporters at the White House press briefing, demanded transparency in the process, and casting doubt on the Democrat-run voting systems.
“We want every legal vote counted, and I want every legal vote counted,” he said. “We want openness and transparency – no secret count rooms, no mystery ballots, no illegal votes being cast after Election Day.”
The president said he correctly predicted that mail-in ballots opened the election up to fraud and that they would challenge the results.
“Democrat officials never believed they could win this election honestly. I really believe that that’s why they did the mail-in ballots, where there is tremendous corruption and fraud going on,” Trump said.
The president said that there were a lot of “shenanigans” in the election, complaining about electoral workers turning away Trump election observers or keeping them away from watching the ballot counts.
“If you count the legal votes, I easily win. If you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us,” Trump said.

“Our goal is to defend the integrity of the election. We will not allow the corruption to steal such an important election or any election for that matter,” he said.
