Donald Trump says Georgia vote recount should stop as matching signatures not shown
Washington/Sputnik: US President Donald Trump on Saturday said the recount of votes in the state of Georgia should be stopped, hinting on the fact that there is room for fraud as matching signatures are not being shown.
"There is tremendous evidence of wide spread voter fraud in that there is irrefutable proof that our Republican poll watchers and observers were not allowed to be present in poll counting rooms. Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and others. Unconstitutional!" Trump wrote on Twitter on Saturday.

I look forward to Mayor Giuliani spearheading the legal effort to defend OUR RIGHT to FREE and FAIR ELECTIONS! Rudy Giuliani, Joseph diGenova, Victoria Toensing, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis, a truly great team, added to our other wonderful lawyers and representatives!

In another tweet, Trump specified that the "hand recount taking place in Georgia is a waste of time. They are not showing the matching signatures. Call off the recount until they allow the MATCH. Don’t let the Radical Left Dems STEAL THE ELECTION!"
The Trump campaign has filed multiple lawsuits in several states, including Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada and Michigan, claiming voting irregularities.
On Wednesday, Trump's team said it had launched a lawsuit alleging irregularities, incompetence and unlawful vote counting in the state of Michigan.
On Thursday, Wisconsin's chief election official, Meagan Wolfe, said that the state was preparing for a potential ballot recount.
On Friday, Pennsylvania’s Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar's office said that there would be no recount of votes in the state, as the margin between the two candidates is too large.
Joe Biden has secured 49.86 per cent of the votes against Trump's 48.9 per cent, according to the state's latest tally.
Major US media outlets claim that Joe Biden is the winner in the Nov 3 presidential election.
Biden himself has already delivered a national address declaring his victory.
However, the election results are disputed and have not been certified yet.
Trump has said he won but the victory was stolen from him via "massive fraud."
Trump is undertaking auditing and recounting in several US states and has filed multiple lawsuits in state and federal courts.
