Trump campaign setting up a hotline and website for people across the country to flag election irregularities.
Trump campaign manager @BillStepien on what they allege is happening as votes come in for Biden.
"It is a disgrace. The American people deserve better. Our democracy deserves better.”
(Short on specifics and of course contested by Dems)

This is what Trump campaign is spinning
- Trump has won Pennsylvania
- Trump 'on pace' to win Arizona
- Optimistic he will win Georgia + North Carolina
That would mean Trump stays president on current map
(BUT Biden ahead in Arizona, could win PA + G)

Trump campaign adviser @JasonMillerinDC says by end of tomorrow it will be clear Trump has won and will stay president.
Trump campaign is clarifying Trump's 'stop the count' tweet. Apparently that means stop counting *illegal* ballots.

Earlier lots of hot rhetoric about Pennsylvania
(Where Trump's ahead but if Biden wins it's over)
- Called state official a “partisan hack” +“disgrace”
- Called Philadelphia “a corrupt place which is known for its shenanigans on election day and after"
(Lots of focus on Philly)

Trump campaign call over. Summary:
- They're arguing Trump will win
- Say he'll win Arizona, Georgia, N Carolina, Pennsy'
- V hard rhetoric alleging election fraud
- Setting up hotline / website to report
- But loose on the specifics of alleged fraud
They are not backing down.

One to watch.
Trump camp bullish about winning Pennsylvania + Arizona
But, to my ear on that call, less so about Georgia.
Similar to yesterday's call when they sounded less confident on Wisconsin + Michigan. Both later went Biden.
If Biden takes Georgia + Nevada he wins.

Last point: Above is of course all the Trump campaign spin. Dems strongly refute idea of election fraud + believe they will win. Do not take the above as fact. But useful I think for people to see their spin for themselves.
