Outgoing US President Donald Trump has renewed his refusal to acknowledge his defeat in the presidential election, despite the US Electoral College announcing that his Democratic rival, Joe Biden, had won, repeating allegations of vote rigging.
Trump said in a new tweet on his official account on the social networking site Twitter that "a huge amount of evidence of fraud in the election votes continues to flow in an unprecedented manner in our country."
Earlier, the leader of the Republican majority in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, admitted that Joe Biden had won the presidential elections, after the electoral college confirmed the results.
Yesterday, the American Electoral College officially approved Biden's victory by winning 306 votes to become the forty-sixth president of the United States, while Trump got 232 votes.
In turn, White House spokeswoman Kylie McCannani revealed today, in response to a question about how Trump responds to the Electoral College vote, that "the latter is still involved in legal challenges to the results of the 2020 presidential elections and that he is" still pursuing litigation efforts.
