I may not accept US election results – Trump declares

Donald Trump
Republican Presidential Candidate, Donald Trump has refused to commit to accepting the election result if he loses, in the final TV debate against Hillary Clinton.

“I will tell you at the time,” he told moderator Chris Wallace.

For days he has claimed the election is “rigged”, BBC reported.

The Las Vegas debate continued the campaign’s bitter tone, with Mr Trump calling Mrs Clinton a “nasty woman”.

The candidates declined to shake hands before and after the political sparring, setting the tone for another debate marked by shouting and interrupting.

The final battle of wits came less than three weeks before election day on 8 November.

Mr Trump appealed to the Republican establishment by vowing to appoint Supreme Court justices with a “conservative bent” who would overturn a key ruling that made abortion legal in the US and protect gun rights.

He also stuck to his pledge to deport undocumented immigrants and secure US borders.

Meanwhile, Mrs Clinton firmly declared she would stand up for the LGBT community, defend abortion rights, focus on restoring the middle class and equal pay for women.

“The government has no business in the decisions that women make,” she said.
