Speaking to reporters on the Thanksgiving holiday, Republican Trump said if Democrat Biden – who is due to be sworn in on January 20 – is formally declared the winner by the Electoral College, he will depart the White House.

But Mr. Trump said it would be hard for him to concede because of massive fraud. It was the first time Mr. Trump has taken questions from reporters since Election Day, and at times he turned combative.

In the United States, a candidate becomes president by securing the most “electoral” votes rather than by winning a majority of the national popular vote.
