The allegation by Trump, who won the required votes in the Electoral College to secure the presidency, comes as Democratic rival Hillary Clinton’s lead in the popular vote over Trump has surpassed 2.0 million votes and is expected to grow to more than 2.5 million as ballots in populous states such as California continue to be tallied.
Clinton has 232 electoral college votes in her kitty as against 270 required to be declared as elected.
The Republican billionaire’s allegations came as steps are being taken towards recounting of votes in the swing state of Wisconsin, which Trump won.
Earlier he described an impending recount of votes in Wisconsin as a “scam” and said the results of the presidential election should be respected instead of being challenged or “abused”.
“It would have been much easier for me to win the so-called popular vote than the Electoral College in that I would only campaign in 3 or 4- – states instead of the 15 states that I visited. I would have won even more easily and convincingly (but smaller states are forgotten)!” Trump said in another tweet.
Soon he fired another tweet alleging voters fraud in three States. “Serious voter fraud in Virginia, New Hampshire and California – so why isn’t the media reporting on this? Serious bias – big problem!” Trump said.
