Violence fear if he refuses to accept 'rigged’ poll loss

Trump's words of war

FEARS that America could descend into violence are mounting as Donald Trump ramps up claims his election battle against Kamala Harris has been rigged against him.

As America prepares to head to the polls tomorrow, the former president has been reverting to his 2020 playbook that led to the January 6 riot.

At rally after rally, Trump has been urging his supporters to deliver a victory over the Democrats that's "too big to rig".

He told an event in Arizona last Thursday: "The only thing that can stop us is the cheating." He has repeatedly refused to say whether he will accept the results, regardless of outcome.

And he has claimed cheating is already under way, citing debunked claims or outrageous theories with no basis in reality.

Throughout his final rallies, Trump has repeated his "stolen election" claims, with pollsters and election officials all sounding alarms.

Joanna Lydgate, president of the States United Democracy Center, said: "It's been four years of spreading lies about elections, recruiting volunteers to challenge the system and filing litigation. What we're seeing today is all of that coming to fruition." The Centre has been working with officials to shore up election security, but warns Trump's false claims have strained the system, potentially undermining public confidence in the results.

Final polling shows Harris has renewed strength in critical states such as North Carolina and Georgia, while Trump has eaten into her lead in Pennsylvania and is in front in Arizona.
