U.S. Republican presidential contender Donald Trump stated that he would be willing to concede defeat following Tuesday’s election, provided it is “a fair election,” while also reiterating concerns over the use of electronic voting machines.
“If I lose an election, if it’s a fair election, I would be the first one to acknowledge it… So far I think it’s been fair,” Trump, repeating a caveat that he has used many times on the campaign trail, told reporters after voting in Florida.
Wearing a red “Make America Great Again” cap, he repeated his previous criticism of electronic voting machines, arguing that they were less secure than paper ballots and would likely delay the announcement of election results.

“They spend all this money on machines… If they would use paper ballots, voter ID, proof of citizenship, and one-day voting, it would all be over by 10 o’clock in the evening. It’s crazy,” he told reporters in West Palm Beach.
He added: “Do you know that paper is more sophisticated now than computers? If it’s watermarked paper you cannot… It’s unbelievable what happens with it. There’s nothing you can do to cheat.”
When asked about concerns over potential unrest following the election and whether he would encourage his supporters to remain peaceful, he dismissed the question.
“I don’t have to tell them that, that there’ll be no violence. Of course there’ll be no violence. My supporters are not violent people,” Trump said.
