Both US political parties are deepening the bitter divisions between Americans on different sides of the political aisle, Max Parry says.

US President Donald Trump has blasted the Republican Governor of Georgia Brian Kemp for not backing his claims of voter fraud that he alleged cost him the election to Joe Biden.

Faced with back-to-back setbacks in Georgia and Michigan, Donald Trump reiterates his claim of “massive voter fraud” in the Nov. 3 election.

In Sundown, Texas, Mayor Jonathan Strickland said there’s “no way in hell” Biden won fairly.

Trump is entitled on behalf of tens of millions of Americans “who voted for him to dispute the election, especially when there is obvious evidence of fraud,” a former American Senate foreign policy analyst says.

US Attorney General William Barr has asked federal prosecutors to look into "substantial" allegations of irregularities in the disputed presidential election.

US President Donald Trump has refused to concede defeat after his Democrat rival Joe Biden was declared the winner of the highly controversial US election, insisting that he will carry on with his legal challenges as the president-elect called for unity and healing in his victory speech.

Tensions mount as the final ballots are counted in one of the most hotly contested elections in history. Fears of unrest are growing as President Donald Trump does everything he can to hold on to office.

The Trump campaign has alleged that 10,000 Americans voted in the state of Nevada despite no longer living there, while pro and anti-Trump continue in Pennsylvania.

The head of an international observer mission to the US elections has expressed concern over attempts by his campaign to stop vote counting, saying it “undermined public trust” in democracy.
