“This is no longer about any single election. This is about the integrity of our entire election process,” the statement said.
The statement accuses Democrats of resisting the “basic principle” that “all legal ballots must be counted and all illegal ballots should not be counted”, and says Trump will “pursue this process through every aspect of the law”.
“I will never give up fighting for you and our nation,” the statement concluded.
Trump has repeatedly suggesting counting postal votes that arrive after election day is “illegal”.

Meantime, Biden leads Trump by nearly 6,000 votes in Pennsylvania and over 1,000 in deep red Georgia.
Millions of votes are still to be counted but even before we have the final tally, Biden has already 73 million votes nationally, the most in American political history.About 130,000 votes remain to be counted in Pennsylvania.
Biden leads Trump 253 to 214 in the electoral vote tally. A victory in Pennsylvania means it is game over for Trump, who ran a wild campaign in 2016 and has transformed the White House in the strangest of ways in the last four years
