"Georgia is headed for a recount, where we are confident we will find ballots improperly harvested, and where President Trump will ultimately prevail. There were many irregularities in Pennsylvania, including having election officials prevent our volunteer legal observers from having meaningful access to vote counting locations. We prevailed in court on our challenge, but were deprived of valuable time and denied the transparency we are entitled to under state law. In Nevada, there appear to be thousands of individuals who improperly cast mail ballots. Finally, the President is on course to win Arizona outright, despite the irresponsible and erroneous 'calling' of the state for Biden by Fox News and the Associated Press," he said.

Matt Morgan summed up, "Biden is relying on these states for his phony claim on the White House, but once the election is final, President Trump will be re-elected." Even though counting is also in progress in North Carolina and Alaska, victories in either Pennsylvania or Georgia, Nevada and Arizona could send Biden to the White House.
