Mr. Trump has repeatedly accused the Democratic Party of cheating in the US election and a series of other accusations.
Ahead of the US election, candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are focusing on Pennsylvania - a battleground state with a large number of electoral votes. Both are confident in predicting victory in this close election.
This year’s race has been full of surprises: Former Republican President Donald Trump faces two assassination attempts and a criminal conviction. On the Democratic side, Vice President Harris surprisingly leads the ticket after 81-year-old Joe Biden withdrew due to internal pressure. More than $2.6 billion has been spent on advertising and campaigning in strategic states to influence voters’ decisions, according to analytics firm AdImpact.
Still, polls show the two candidates are neck and neck. Results may not be known until after Election Day due to the tight nature of the race.

Mr. Trump has left open the possibility that he will not accept the election results if he loses and may take legal action to challenge them. This is a strategy he used in the 2020 election when he refused to concede defeat and launched multiple lawsuits, claiming there was election fraud and not recognizing the results.
To appeal to voters, Mr. Trump spoke to a large crowd of supporters in Pittsburgh, emphasizing the economy with a commitment to lower food prices, raise wages and ensure public safety.
"We have been waiting for this for four years," he said.
In contrast, Ms. Harris called for support from the Puerto Rican community in Allentown, while condemning offensive comments made by a comedian at a previous Trump rally.
In Reading, she met voters at a Puerto Rican restaurant to appeal directly to voters. Her internal data shows growing support from young voters and people of color.
Meanwhile, Mr. Trump's campaign focused on male voters, especially those who were undecided or did not regularly participate in elections.
Polls show that Ms. Harris has a big advantage among women voters. To close this gap, Mr. Trump’s team has turned to men.
Billionaire Elon Musk - a Trump supporter, took to social network X to urge men to vote. However, a program calling on voters by Musk has run into legal trouble in Pennsylvania because it is considered an illegal "lottery".
Mr Trump has also stressed his social stance, pledging to protect women's rights, let states decide on abortion bans, and prevent transgender athletes from participating in women's sports.
Despite the signs of optimism, Mr. Trump and his allies have continued to hint at the possibility of fraud if they lose. In contrast, Ms. Harris’s campaign has insisted that, even if Mr. Trump contests the results, such efforts will not change the final outcome. Ms. Harris has emphasized that the American people will decide the president.
In contrast, Ms. Harris’s campaign asserted that, even if Mr. Trump contested the results, these efforts would not change the final outcome. Election procedures and legal regulations have been strictly established to ensure transparency and fairness, so any allegations of fraud or irregularities on Mr. Trump’s part would be unlikely to lead to an overturning of the results.
The Democratic candidate stressed that the power to elect the president lies in the hands of voters, not in the hands of any individual or political group.
"The American people will decide who the president is, not Mr. Trump," Ms. Harris said.
Trump will vote in Florida today and await the results, marking the end of his campaign. Harris’s team is also focusing on Pennsylvania, ending the campaign with a big event in Philadelphia with the participation of stars such as Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, and Oprah Winfrey, creating momentum for this historic election day.
