Trump h earlier threatened that any counting of ballots or voting after polling booths closed down will have him to go US Supreme Court to ensure “integrity” of election procedures. Trump, declaring a premature victory, also warned about accepting any ballots at polling stations after voting stopped. Meanwhile calling Trump’s threats as "naked effort to take away democratic rights of American citizens,” O’Malley Dillon said that if US President makes “good on his threat” to go to court to try to prevent proper tabulation of votes, legal teams will take over. Meanwhile, Trump accused Democrats of election fraud on Twitter, saying, Blue party is “trying to steal Election”. “We will never let m do it. Votes cant be cast after Polls are closed.”
