Hours before either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will be elected president, the GOP nominee still won’t say whether he’ll definitively accept the outcome.

“I want to see what happens, you know, how it goes,” Trump told Newsradio 610 WTVN on Tuesday morning, according to CNN, which first reported on two interviews in which the real estate mogul refused to commit to accepting the election results.


“You hear so many horrible stories and you see so many things that are wrong. So we’ll take a look,” he continued. “But certainly I love this country and I believe in the system, you understand that.”

Trump suggested during the final presidential debate that he would leave the country in suspense on Election Day as to whether he would concede to Clinton if she were to prevail. During that October debate, Trump would only say that he would look at it that the time.

Asked Tuesday on Tampa Bay, Florida’s 970 WFLA station whether he would contest the results of a “really close” election, Trump affirmed. “Well, if I think there’s something that was wrong,” he said.

He added: “If I think everything’s on the up and up, that’s a lot of different, and we can only see what happens. I hope it’s gonna be very fair. I think we’re gonna do very well.”

Trump also blamed President Barack Obama for rebuking him over his refusal to say he will accept the results when Obama, he alleged, “was basically saying that Chicago’s rigged.”

Trump was apparently referring to a stop at Kent State University during his 2008 campaign when Obama noted that he comes from Chicago and acknowledged, “It’s not as if it’s just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past.” People in power have a tendency to try to tilt things in their favor, Obama said, calling for a nonpartisan Voting Rights Division of the Justice Department.

“Did you notice when I brought this up a few months ago, Obama and others said, ‘Oh, this is the foundation of our country.’ But eight years ago, he was basically saying that Chicago’s rigged,” Trump said. “I don’t know if you saw that clip, but, you know, he talks up like: ‘Oh, this is the foundation. How dare he question the voting and all of this?’”

“Well, give me a break,” he continued, before suggesting that there might be voting improprieties in areas with a dense population of African-Americans. “What’s going on in Philadelphia and Chicago and St. Louis and lots of other — for years, it’s legendary, OK? Talked about for years. But they have a clip of Obama basically saying that Chicago, you know, elections are rigged. And I’m saying to myself, ‘Can you believe that?’”
