President Donald Trump's campaign falsely claimed on Wednesday afternoon that the president had won the key battleground state of Pennsylvania, even as hundreds of thousands of ballots have yet to be counted in the state.
"We are declaring a victory in Pennsylvania," Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien told reporters during a press call on Wednesday afternoon.
On the same call, Trump campaign adviser Jason Miller appeared to slightly walk back the campaign's false claims, instead saying it "believes" Trump will win Pennsylvania. Trump needs the state's 20 electoral votes in order to win reelection.
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany and Trump's son Eric also echoed Stepien's false claim on Twitter.
