美國總統、共和黨總統參選人川普15日推文談到:「因沒有觀察員獲准監票,選票更由激進左派公司Dominion計算,拜登因此勝選。」這一番話,被美國國家廣播公司新聞網(NBC News)報導,拜登政府的幕僚長的克蘭(Ron Klain)稱,川普推文「承認拜登勝選的事實」。
報導一出後數小時,川普又在推文澄清,並表態將持續進行法律戰,「拜登只是在『假新聞』媒體眼中贏得這場選舉。我什麼也沒都沒承認!我們還有很長的一段路要走。」更再次控訴:「選舉舞弊,我們會贏!」。
He won because the Election was Rigged. NO VOTE WATCHERS OR OBSERVERS allowed, vote tabulated by a Radical Left privately owned company, Dominion, with a bad reputation & bum equipment that couldn’t even qualify for Texas (which I won by a lot!), the Fake & Silent Media, & more! https://t.co/Exb3C1mAPg

He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING! We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED ELECTION!

儘管多國領袖和主要媒體已認定拜登勝選,但確切結果仍有待選務機關公布,而持續進行的選舉法律訴訟也延後正式的總統人選結果。
在周末美國各地也有多起挺川遊行,規模相當浩大,載有川普車隊也「路過」位於華府的聲援活動。
