US President Donald Trump said he felt very good on the 3rd local time, the day of the presidential election, and was optimistic about his victory over the 2016 presidential election.
According to the political media The Hill, President Trump appeared on Fox News this morning, saying, "We feel very good," and expects to surpass the 306 electors he secured four years ago.
The United States elects a 538 electoral votes allocated by state through a presidential election that day, of which 270, a majority, will be elected president.
In connection with some reports that he has plans to declare victory early even if the counting is not over if it is ahead of the early counting, he denies that "only when we win... there is no reason to play around," but "we are very likely to win." He showed confidence again.
President Trump made a compulsory march with 14 campaigns in the three days just before the presidential election.
He visited the presidential camp office in Arlington, Virginia, and encouraged his staff.
He told reporters at this meeting that "I am not yet thinking about the defeat and victory speech or the (re-election) acceptance speech."
"We only hope to do one of these two speeches," he said, expressing his hope for an acceptance speech, and said, "You know, winning is easy. Losing is never easy. It is not so for me."
The Hill said President Trump expressed confidence in the election results, saying that accepting defeat is a difficult task.
President Trump once again expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Supreme Court's decision to allow Pennsylvania to accept ballots by mail that arrived within three days of the presidential election as "a very dangerous decision for our country."
He argued that if this rule was applied, a lot of trickery could happen and suddenly the calculation of the vote could change.
President Trump has indicated a possible lawsuit by saying that he will consult with an attorney on the issue of counting Pennsylvania's ballots once the vote is over.
Some observers say that this move is a foreshadowing of dissatisfaction, given that President Trump has not clearly answered the question of conquest in the event of a presidential defeat.
President Trump will hold an election party at the White House in the evening with supporters and others.
President Trump initially hoped to hold the event at the Trump Hotel in Washington, DC, but the Hill reported that the idea was dismissed due to restrictions on large gatherings following the spread of Corona 19.
CNN said it would be a scale with around 400 attendees.
