US President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that the electoral system and the presidential elections in the country have suffered damage.

“Our lawyers have asked for “meaningful access”, but what good does that do? The damage has already been done to the integrity of our system, and to the Presidential Election itself. This is what should be discussed,” Trump tweeted.

While Americans await the results of the US elections’ count to know their next president, Republican Donald Trump, and Democrat Joe Biden continue their race to win the states in succession and accumulate votes in the electorate.

To date, Wednesday, no official results have been issued, but rather preliminary results reported by research centers and local media.

In this context, some polls have reported that Biden won 264 votes in the electoral college, compared to 214 for Trump.

Without declaring victory, Biden said he believed his Democratic campaign would prevail.

On his part, Trump, a Republican, claimed to have won. His campaign has filed lawsuits in two states where Biden leads.

It is worth mentioning that each candidate needs to win 270 votes from the electoral college.
