According to U.S. media on the 4th (local time), Chief Stepien told reporters this. This is interpreted as an intention to declare victory in the current situation while filing a lawsuit to stop the vote count in Pennsylvania.

President Trump also took an offensive stance on Twitter, saying, "We are winning big in Pennsylvania. However, the Pennsylvania Secretary of State said there are millions of ballots left."

In Pennsylvania, with 82% of the votes counted, President Donald Trump is ahead of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden by 7 percentage points, but many mail-in ballots remain, raising the possibility of a Biden comeback.

The Trump campaign also demanded that AP News and Fox News reconsider their judgment that Biden won in Arizona. In Arizona, with 86% of the votes counted, Biden is ahead of President Trump by 3.4 percentage points.

Jason Miller, a Trump campaign advisor, predicted, "President Trump can overturn the remaining votes and win by Friday."
