US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden confirmed his confidence in winning the presidential election, but without declaring victory, while outgoing President Donald Trump toned down the accusations but warned against any "illegal" declaration of victory.

In a televised speech delivered at dawn on Saturday (GMT), Biden said that he would win the election race with a clear majority, stressing that he did not have a final announcement of victory yet.

He explained that he is on the way to obtain more than 300 votes in the electoral college, expressing his hope that he will speak to the Americans tomorrow.

He added that all votes will be counted no matter how long it takes, announcing that he will win the votes of Pennsylvania, Nevada and Arizona.

"We will win the Arizona vote, which has not cast its vote for the Democrats for four decades," he said.

US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has described Democratic candidate Joe Biden as an "elected president" of the United States.

In a press conference, Pelosi said of Biden and his deputy, Kamala Harris, that it was clear that they would win the White House, expressing her happiness with that because of Biden's high leadership qualities.

Primary mandate

Biden, 77, is currently making progress in Pennsylvania, the primary state that has 20 votes in the electoral college, and that can give him victory, knowing that he is leading in this state by about 29,000 votes, but no American station has announced his victory in that state.

If Biden wins that industrial state, he will become the 46th US president, regardless of what happens in the other counters.

In Georgia, State Secretary Brad Ravensberger said he expects a recount due to the small margin between Biden and Trump.

On the other hand, the official of the voting system of the Electoral Commission in the state of Georgia confirmed that the state authorities deal with all complaints and accusations regarding the vote counting processes.

Clark County Election Commissioner Joe Glory said about 63,000 ballot papers were currently being counted.

Glory added in a press conference that they are cooperating with the postal services to deliver all the cards to the sorting center, and that they will not leave their place until all the legal cards are counted.

Less severe

In the opposite camp, Trump adopted a less blunt tone than the previous day when he spoke of "stolen" elections, but he remained vague about his intentions, according to a statement published.

Trump had renewed accusations of fraud, without providing any evidence.

He told reporters at the White House, "If the legal votes are counted, I win easily. (And) if the illegal votes are counted, they can steal the elections from us."

For his part, Matt Morgan, general counsel for Trump's campaign, confirmed that the US presidential elections are not over yet.

He said in a statement that what he described as false estimates announcing Biden's victory were based on results that are far from final in 4 states.

Matt Morgan considered that the voting operations in the states of Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania were all marred by irregularities, and that Trump would win in the end in Arizona.

He added that Biden relies on those states for his false claim to win access to the White House, and as soon as the election process ends, the president will win a second term, as he put it.

Potential loss

In the same context, the Washington Post reported that Trump's advisers had discussed, over the past two days, the possibility of him losing the elections.

The newspaper added, citing two Republican sources familiar with the matter, that the advisers discussed how Trump should deal with the outcome.

And some close to the president, in the event Biden is declared winning, support the issue of Trump making a speech committing to the peaceful transfer of power.

On the other hand, the newspaper quoted a senior Trump campaign official confirming that the issue of the waiver letter had not been discussed.

Some allies of President Trump expect him to continue, if he loses, to claim unfounded that the elections were stolen, the newspaper said.

Meanwhile, New York City witnessed rallies that roamed several streets in the city to demand that Trump admit he lost the election.

The demonstrators demanded that the US President leave the White House and recognize the victory of his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.
