Reports suggest Joe Biden is leading in most of the national polls, compared to Trump. However, Biden is concerned that Trump might attempt to 'steal' his chance of winning, not emphasising on how he would do it.

US President Donald Trump said, he will move on and do other things if he loses the upcoming elections on November 3. According to reports, Joe Biden the Democratic opponent believes Trump might 'cheat' to win the elections.

Trump said in an interview, "Certainly if I don't win, I don't win. I mean, you know, go on and do other things."

The Republican and the Democratic opponents are doubting each other's credibility, they believe the other will cheat through the way to win the Nov 3 elections.

Reports suggest Joe Biden is leading in most of the national polls, compared to Trump. However, Biden is concerned that Trump might attempt to 'steal' his chance of winning, not emphasising on how he would do it. Further, he added, Trump will be escorted outside the White House, if he (Trump) doesn't acknowledge his defeat in the elections.

Tim Murtaugh, Trump's spokesman and Trump himself said to Fox News, that he would accept the result, be it his defeat or victory in the elections. Although, Trump suggested the Democratic opponent will use 'mail-in' voting during the elections, which can be manipulated easily. 

Meanwhile, Joe Biden plans to deploy lawyers on the site of polling booths to ensure transparency, and report any efforts made by Republicans to suppress votes.

Experts say, the upcoming election night will be a highly competitive one, everyone is bracing for a dramatic turn of events.

Due to the ongoing pandemic caused by the coronavirus, there can be a surge in mail-in votes. But, the mail-in voting process can be manipulated and there are several cons to this system of voting.

Sometimes, mail ballots don't get delivered on time, which creates confusion and leads to legal challenges. According to experts, counting mail ballots is a time-consuming process, as it includes everything voter's identification.
