President Donald Trump wants to know how his election night lead in "many key States" that are nearly all Democrat-"run & controlled" disappeared as "surprise ballot dumps were counted."

"Last night I was leading, often solidly, in many key States, in almost all instances Democrat run & controlled. Then, one by one, they started to magically disappear as surprise ballot dumps were counted," he tweeted Wednesday.

Trump called his slip "VERY STRANGE" and claimed that the "'pollsters'" got the election "completely & historically wrong!"

Twitter slapped a label on the president's tweet warning that the information "might be misleading."

In a follow-up tweet, he questioned how mail-in "ballot dumps" are "devastating" in both their "percentage and power of destruction?"

He then wrote "WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT?" in a third tweet, which was also given a warning label by Twitter.

Trump has claimed that Democrats are trying to "steal" the election from him after he declared himself the winner as votes were still being counted in several battleground states. Election results are still unknown in several key battleground states.
