For days and weeks it has been discussed not only in the USA how Trump will behave on election night on November 3rd. Now a report says that the president plans to declare himself the winner before all the votes are counted. According to a media report, US President Donald Trump could declare himself the winner before the end of the vote count if he had a lead on the night of the election. The news site Axios reported, citing three unnamed sources, that the Republican had discussed plans with confidants. Because of the pandemic, a record number of postal voters is expected.

Chaos after voting fears Americans stand in line for historic election

According to surveys, supporters of Democrat Joe Biden want to make use of it. In competitive states like Pennsylvania, postal votes can be counted days after the election. This could mean that Trump is ahead in the Wednesday night election, but his lead turns into defeat in the days after. Then the electorate in the states in which the result turns would not be awarded to Trump, but to Biden. That could be decisive in a close result – the winner needs at least 270 of the 538 electorate from the states. During an election campaign appearance in Dubuque, Iowa on Sunday, Trump again demanded that an election result must be available on Wednesday night. “It has always been like that, and that’s how it should be.” Trump has been claiming for months, without any evidence, that postal voting encourages fraud. In the opinion of critics, he thus prepares the field for doubting the result in the event of a defeat. Axios said Trump’s team is preparing to make an unfounded claim that the Democrats “stole” the election if the Pennsylvania result turned in Biden’s favor after election night.

Biden is ahead

Trump campaign advisor Jason Miller also accused the Democrats of wanting to “steal” an election victory after the election. Miller said on ABC broadcaster: “We believe we will have more than 290 voters on election night.” No matter what the Democrats try for “lawsuits or whatever nonsense” – Trump will have enough voters to be re-elected for a second term. The US election expert Nate Silver from the highly regarded website Fivethirtyeight sees Biden as a clear favorite based on the current polls. He gives him a 90 percent chance of overall victory, but expressly says that a Trump success is “plausible” – even without interrupting the counting of votes cast. But Biden will also win if the polls are as wrong as in 2016.
