President Trump has warned that Democrats are attempting to steal the election as vote counting has been stopped in several key areas, with officials declaring that people need to ‘go to bed’.
With the election still on a knife edge this morning, Trump told reporters “We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election.”
“We have won Georgia. We’re up 2.5 percent, or 117,000 votes with only 7 percent left. They are never going to catch us!” Trump added.
“Likewise, we’ve clearly won North Carolina,” the President declared.
“We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election,” Trump said, adding “This is a major fraud on our nation. We want the law to be used in a proper manner. So we’ll be going to the U.S. Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop.”
“We want all voting to stop. We don’t want them to find any ballots at four o’clock in the morning,” Trump urged.

Earlier Trump tweeted
“We are up BIG, but they are trying to STEAL the Election. We will never let them do it. Votes cannot be cast after the Polls are closed!”
Twitter censored the post as as “potentially misleading.”

Joe Biden declared he is “on track” to beat Trump, prompting Facebook to flag the Democrat’s post with a warning that the winner has not yet been projected:
Vote counting was stopped in key areas such as Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, just as it seemed that Trump was about to make the gains he needs to edge the election:
Totally normal that as soon as it was looking good for Trump, they stopped counting the votes.
People have to sleep!

Trump outperformed all expectations and they stopped counting the votes?
OK, that's totally normal.

The idea that poll workers in America can't stay up for a few hours over their normal bedtime to fulfil their duty in counting votes for one of if not the most important election in U.S. history is pathetic.
In Europe, whenever there's an election, we stay up until 8am.
Weak.

Strangest election ever.
Everyone gave up on it an hour ago and said they were going to bed.
Bizarre.

By this time back in 2016 the voting map was finalized.
Why not now?
Count the fucking votes.
How hard can it be?

Earlier on Tuesday, Trump officials claimed that Democrats were preventing Trump poll watchers in Philadelphia from entering poll stations:

Here’s the poll watcher’s certificate
It makes clear that it allows the holder to watch at any polling place in the city pic.twitter.com/0lRgIFekKg

North Philadelphia: poll watcher DENIED entry. DEMOCRAT committee person seems to be running election board. Will not allow watcher in, said she is calling her ward leader — who has NO official standing. #StopTheSteal
