The Trump campaign on Nov. 19 accused media outlets of “falsely reporting” a Georgia win for former Vice President Joe Biden amid contested recount procedures in the state.

The largest hand recount of ballots in U.S. history began in Georgia on Nov. 13, ahead of a Nov. 20 deadline to certify state election results. The Trump campaign is challenging the recount process because it did not include signature matching.
