US President Donald Trump has insisted he is not conceding the US election, despite seemingly acknowledging for the first time that Democrat Joe Biden won.

The Republican president wrote on Twitter that Biden won because the Election was Rigged.

About an hour later he said he was not conceding the election.

He has launched several lawsuits in key states but has not provided any evidence to back his claims of fraud.

All the lawsuits have so far been unsuccessful.

BBC News reports election officials said the vote was the "most secure in American history" and there was "no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes or was in any way compromised".

Biden remains president-elect.

The Democrat has 306 votes in the electoral college - the system the US uses to choose its president - which far exceeds the 270 threshold to win.

Any recounts or legal challenges are not expected to overturn the overall result.

Biden's lead in the popular vote has also surpassed five million.
