There is anxiety in the United States as counting of the election result is still ongoing, with President Donald Trump alleging that votes were still cast after the polls were closed.
In a flash statement on Twitter on Wednesday morning, November 4, Trump said he will be making a key statement on the results of the election.
The president alleged Biden and his party are trying to "steal the election", threatening that "we will never let them do it".

Although Trump looked like he would pull the magic earlier having won 13 states, Biden overtook the incumbent president on the electoral vote scoresheet.
Sensing a possible defeat, Trump said he would never allow Biden to win the election as there was vote-stealing, with the US president's statement likely to incite violence. He stated:
"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."
In another tweet, Trump declared that Americans will be hearing from him on the election results.
