WASHINGTON – President-elect Joe Biden said Wednesday that Americans “won’t stand” for attempts to derail the US election outcome, as Donald Trump called for the results to be overturned. “This election was rigged,” Trump said via telephone, repeating several claims of vote tampering that have been shot down in courtrooms across the country. And while Trump is alleging — among other conspiracy theories — that voting machines deliberately deleted millions of his votes, the government election security agency declared this “the most secure” election in US history. But Trump has yet to take even the simplest steps in normal post-election protocol, starting with a phone call to Biden. “No, I have not heard anything from President Trump,” Biden told NBC News.
