US President Donald Trump is renewing his unfounded claims that Democrats are trying to steal the election from him.

He did not back up his claim with any details or evidence but is calling for the "legal votes" to only be counted.

State and federal officials have not reported any instances of widespread voter fraud.

Trump claims, without evidence, that the ballot-counting process is unfair and corrupt.

The process across the US has been running smoothly, and the count is ongoing in several battleground states.

Democrat Joe Biden is urging patience, while President Donald Trump is pursing his legal options to stop the vote counting.
