Trump: Will accept election results if I win; Pence: Will accept but have right to legally challenge questionable results; Obama: Dangerous to sow seeds of doubt in people's minds

Sheriff David Clarke on Trump Accepting the Election Results - October 21, 2016, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R2yuemfCbk, 12 min 16 secs

At around 1:12 in the video we see Mr. Donald Trump saying on October 20th at Delaware, OH, "I would like to promise and pledge to all of my voters and supporters and to all of the people of the United States that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election - if I win"!

At around 1:58 in the video we see Gov. Mike Pence saying on Oct. 20th at Reno, NV, "As Donald Trump said earlier today in Ohio, of course we will accept a clear election result. But we also reserve the right to contest or file a legal challenge in the case of questionable results. We will follow and abide by the rules and the traditions of many candidates who have gone before, to uphold the integrity of the vote."

At around 2:30 in the video we see USA President Obama saying on Oct. 20th at Miami Gardens, FL, "Because you know this, the Donald's already whining that the vote's gonna be rigged before the game's even over. We (are) just starting to vote now. He's already like, 'Oh! The game's rigged!' Except today he said, of course, it's not rigged if I win. That is not a joking matter. No, no, no. I want everybody to pay attention here. That is dangerous. Because when you try to sow the seeds of doubt in people's minds about the legitimacy of our elections that undermines our democracy."

Please note that I have a PUBLICLY NEUTRAL informal-student-observer role in these posts that I put up about the USA presidential elections. Of course, as I am an Indian citizen living in India, there is no question of me voting in these elections.
