Senior members of the US Congress have spoken out about the election results, as Biden's transition team presses ahead with preparations to take over the White House in January, whether or not the Trump administration cooperates.
The prominent Republican in the Senate, Lindsay Graham, urged President Donald Trump to "fight fiercely" and not acknowledge his loss to Joe Biden in the presidential race, stressing that the investigation should be carried out on the lack of evidence allegations made by the Republican billionaire.
He said in an interview with Fox News that these elections are disputed, and the media do not specify their results, noting that voting by mail was a nightmare for Republicans, as he described it.
Graham made it clear during his speech that if the Republicans did not fight now, they would not be able to win the presidential election again.
He called on Republicans not to accept the media announcement regarding the elections, and stressed the necessity of fighting the battle.
Rudy Giuliani, the personal attorney of US President Donald Trump, said that Trump's announcement of his defeat would be a mistake after what he described as the fraud he was subjected to.
Giuliani added in an interview with Fox News that resolving these imbalances will not be done at the state level, and said that the Trump campaign has 70 witnesses to these imbalances in Pennsylvania.
He reiterated the accusations that President Trump had previously made of removing observers from the screening centers, and believed that the goal of this process is to reduce Trump's progress in Pennsylvania.
He said that a number of ballot papers were counted after they arrived late at counting offices in Pennsylvania, and he also claimed that the dead had voted in this election.
He stressed the possibility of changing the results in Pennsylvania, which witnessed what he said was a disaster in the vote count.
Republican officials were more conservative in their comments, but they refused to recognize Biden's victory, stressing the need to proceed with judicial appeals and continue the count.
Republican minority leader in the US House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy told Fox News that "what we need in the presidential race is to ensure that all the legal ballot papers are counted, that all recounts are completed, and all judicial appeals are considered."
Only then will America decide who wins the race. "
Trump has previously launched a series of allegations of fraud without providing any evidence, and has claimed that he won the election even though estimates based on the count results showed Biden the winner.
For his part, Republican Senator Ted Cruz considered that President Trump still has a way to win, which is to count all legal votes and not count illegal votes, stressing that the media is not the one who determines the identity of the president, and these are contested elections in a number of states.
"We heard that there are dead people who voted in this election, and that there is a flaw in the vote counting program in Michigan, which is the program adopted by other states," Cruz added.
He said that the country has a judicial system to know these facts and that the matter could easily end in the Supreme Court, and he expected a similar scenario in these elections to what happened in the 2000 elections.
Meanwhile, CNN quoted two sources as saying that Jared Kushner - the chief adviser in the White House - had communicated with President Trump about the approval of the election result.
Reuters quoted Trump allies that he does not intend to concede defeat soon, and one of them said that the president is not ready to concede defeat even though there are not enough invalid ballots during the recount to change the result, adding, "It is mathematically sure that he will lose."
Team to work on Corona
On the other hand, the US President-elect, Joe Biden, said that he will form a working group of 12 members tomorrow, Monday, to develop a vision to deal effectively with the Corona virus, in the first step towards fulfilling his campaign's biggest promise of responding effectively to the pandemic that has struck Millions have damaged the American economy.
And I will not spare any effort or commitment to achieve remarkable success regarding this pandemic, ”according to what Bloomberg News reported on Sunday.
He indicated that the pandemic response efforts will be based on science, and the special task group will be led by former general surgeon Vivek Murthy and former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner David Kessler, according to what Bloomberg quoted Biden campaign manager Kate Bidingfield as saying.
To the golf club

Trump left in his private motorcade, heading to his club, which is about 40 minutes from the White House, where he bound some citizens at some junctions, raising banners announcing the victory of his rival, Joe Biden, in the presidential race.
