Biden campaign manager: 'Under no circumstances' will Trump be declared winner on election night

Joe Biden’s campaign manager, Jen O’Malley Dillon, preemptively countered an expected move from President Trump to declare himself the victor of the presidential election on election night before all votes are counted and before analysts can accurately project a winner.

“It was reported yesterday that President Trump believes that if he wins the East Coast battleground states, Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia, he plans to go out and declare victory,” O’Malley Dillon said Monday during a briefing on the Democratic presidential nominee’s potential paths to wining 270 Electoral College votes. “We want to be clear with you: If he tries to do that, that will not be true.”
