Even though the electoral college voted for the president, many of Trump's supporters still believed he was the legitimate winner, not Biden.

Richard Everit left the hotel with a heavy heart to join a rally that supporters of President Donald Trump held near the White House on the morning of December 12.

"I barely went out after the announcement last night," said Everit, 55, who lives in western Pennsylvania.

Everit said he liked the way Trump "pointed his nose" at the two-party elites, many of whom had been in power for many years and seemingly richer thanks to it.

In November, Trump's supporters held a similar event shortly after the election.

One thing that hasn't changed, however, is that for Trump's most staunch supporters, he has always been the legitimate winner of this year's elections.

The Fox News survey released on December 11 found that 77% of Trump's voters believed the election had been "stolen".

But interviews with dozens of people who vote for Trump also reveal a more puzzle-piece picture.

Others do not take such firm stance.

"Do I believe Trump and Giuliani, and their legal fight are 100 percent correct?", Richard Houskamp, owner of a tech company in Grand Rapids, Michigan, mentioned an attempt to prove a failed election

However, Houskamp added that he also did not trust Michigan state officials when they said there was no evidence of electoral fraud.

Houskamp said he does not think Trump will win nationwide, even if allegations of election fraud are well-established.

What will happen after the 2020 election is an important question for American democracy.

In addition to doubts about who will take over the White House next January, the voters participating in the interview also showed that they have lost confidence in the US electoral system.

"My confidence in the elections is currently very low," said John Kenny, 55, who previously voted for Trump.

Everit, who participated in the 12/12 rally, did not vote in 2016. But he said this time to vote because he feared Trump could not win the election and because he did not like the long-standing leaders of both parties.

Everit doesn't believe Biden has won this election, but accepts the fact that Biden will take office next month.

"I probably will never vote again," he said.

Not only Everit, many voters in areas where Trump overwhelmed Trump did not believe Biden had won.

"Around here, everyone thought the election was stolen from Trump," said Evelyn Adkins, 56, a baker in Letcher County, Kentucky, where Trump won 79 percent of the vote.

"One thing for sure on my mind was that there was fraud in the first place," said Theda Kasner, a retired medical officer in Wisconsin.

She said she was shocked to learn that Biden had won so many votes, saying that almost no one in her county had voted for Biden.

"Trust me, Arizona is a Republican state," Kasner said.

Even now there are still many supporters who believe in Trump's chance to turn the tables, including Julia Calveria, 63, a retired ophthalmologist, who has traveled more than nine hours from west North Carolina.

"Trump could be playing a surprise card," she said.
