US Vice President-elect Kamala Harris has accused the current American leader Donald Trump in the abuse of power after the appearance of the recording of his conversation with the Secretary of State of Georgia Brad Raffensperger, during which the head of state asked to recount the votes in his favor. She made such a statement on the air of the C-SPAN TV channel.
“Have you all heard about this recorded conversation? It was, of course, a voice of despair. It was a blatant and daring abuse of power by the President of the United States,” Harris said.
Previously The Washington Post reported that Donald Trump called on Brad Raffensperger to recount the votes in one of the key US states in the presidential election in his favor. “I just want to find 11,780 votes, because we won,” the newspaper quoted the president.
On November 3, 2020, regular presidential elections were held in the United States. The counting of votes and the proceedings on this issue are still ongoing. According to the media, Biden received the necessary number of electoral votes to win, thus surpassing the current American leader Donald Trump. The democrat has already proclaimed himself the elected president of the United States. Trump, in turn, said that Biden was quick to call himself the country’s new leader.
