WASHINGTON, Nov 6 (NNN-BERNAMA-SPUTNIK) — United States President Donald Trump’s legal team obtained a court order allowing his campaign representatives immediate access to the vote-counting process in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi told reporters outside of the Pennsylvania Convention Centre on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We plan on entering that building right now and observing the vote,” Bondi said, reports Sputnik news agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump 2020 campaign senior advisor Corey Lewandowski said they will observe the process from six feet away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We’re going to go in here right now to watch what’s going on, not from 30 feet away, not from 100 feet away, from six feet away,” Lewandowski said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump’s legal team filed earlier lawsuits in Pennsylvania and Michigan to stop vote counting until courts allow campaign observers to monitor the ballots being counted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The gap between Trump and his Democratic challenger Joe Biden has narrowed in Philadelphia suburbs as some Pennsylvania counties just started tallying mailed-in ballots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With 87 per cent of the votes counted in the state which carries 20 electoral votes, Trump is currently leading 50.5 per cent to 48.4 per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
