Their rating
Donald Trump, president

“Last night I was leading, often solidly, in many key States, in almost all instances Democrat run & controlled. Then, one by one, they started to magically disappear as surprise ballot dumps were counted.”

PolitiFact rated this: False

PolitiFact says: Variations in who led the race stems from the normal tabulation processes playing out. And the allegation of “surprise ballot dumps” is flat wrong. Officials had been warning about delays in counting for months.
