All six states where President Trump contested the results have now certified Joe Biden as the winner, but the president continues to say there was fraud without providing evidence. The Attorney General also said Tuesday there was no evidence of significant fraud. All this, as many congressional Republicans remain silent on the issue.

Six battleground states certify Joe Biden as election winner

There were allegations of fraud in 2000, but back then, there was much greater uncertainty about who had actually won the election. And the dispute centered on just one state: Florida, and a few hundred votes. (

The president's campaign has filed new lawsuits in Pennsylvania and Arizona. How are the courts likely to go? “They are not arguing something a court can give them … in Pennsylvania, one of the things they are asking for is to throw out the entire vote, which is sort of absurd,” says Ciara Torres-Spelliscy, a law professor at Stetson University College of Law.

The usual custom of conceding is a short phone call to the victor and a speech to supporters thanking them for their efforts, albeit in a lost cause. But Trump says that "this election is far from over."

Will Trump concede defeat to Biden and follow centuries-old tradition?

New voter registration and community outreach were key in securing Hispanic turnout in the elections, especially in Arizona and Florida, and could provide a roadmap for future campaigns.

What could happen if Trump does not concede to Biden? “That is not just bad for a president-elect, but bad for our country… we know that foreign adversaries may try to take advantage of uncertainty so there are national security considerations that need to be taken into account,” says Chris Lu, a former senior member of the Obama administration.

Will President Trump concede his election loss to Joe Biden?

How will people know the final results? “Every state has what they call a certification date … essentially, about 10 to 15 days after the election, the committee in charge of the state election … will meet and they will certify the counts from all the counties,” says Charles Zelden political science professor at Nova Southeastern University.

Could we be headed for another election recount controversy as happened 20 years ago in Florida between George W Bush and Al Gore? “The president is likely to call for recounts. He will challenge the legitimacy of many of the votes counted. That will bring in the lawyers and litigation. And we may be in another Bush v. Gore scenario if it goes on,” says Charles Zelden, a political science professor at Nova Southeastern University, referring to the controversial 2000 Florida election recount.
