美國國會稍後將召開聯席會議,確認各州選舉人投票結果。
在確認結果之前,名總統特朗普的支持者在國會山莊附近集會,特朗普更現身發言,批評選舉舞弊。
特朗普早前於社交網站發帖,再度呼籲主持聯席會議的副總統彭斯,拒絕接受部分選舉人票,以推翻大選結果,他形容是極富勇氣的時刻。
States want to correct their votes, which they now know were based on irregularities and fraud, plus corrupt process never received legislative approval. All Mike Pence has to do is send them back to the States, AND WE WIN. Do it Mike, this is a time for extreme courage!
