President Donald Trump said his campaign's legal challenges to the November 3 election were "not over" despite the Supreme Court decision to dismiss a Texas lawsuit against four key states.

Speaking at "Fox & Friends" during a taped interview, Trump said: "No, it's not over. We keep going and we're going to continue to go forward."

He added that the Trump campaign still has "numerous local cases" to look forward to despite the Supreme Court's rejection.

He said he isn't planning to accept the result of the electoral vote due on Monday, reported Newsmax.

The news outlet also stated that with challenges on the election still pending, the media should not declare a winner.

The Texas lawsuit challenged election handling in the states of Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said the states had a "weakened ballot-integrity" that led to widespread irregularities, The Epoch Times reported.

Trump Says Electoral College Vote Gave Them 'Little Time'

With the Electoral College vote nearing - another step forward in a presidential election, Trump said his campaign was left with "very little time."

"We're going to speed it up as much as we can, but you can only go so fast," Trump said. "We caught them, as you know, as fraudulent, dropping ballots, doing so many things, nobody can even believe it."

He also claimed that he won the "rigged and robbed" states.

"We won Pennsylvania. We won Michigan. We won Georgia by a lot," he claimed. However, The Washington Post reported that the president actually lost in the said states.

According to the Post, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden won 306 electoral votes, and Trump only won 232. But Trump believes if Biden gets certified as the next president, the U.S. would have an "illegitimate president" because of his alleged voter fraud claims.

Meanwhile, Trump refused to answer if he would attend Biden's inauguration. 

Trump Campaign Won't Stop Court Challenges, Giuliani Says

Trump predicted that with three of his appointees to the high court, they would support him in his election disputes. However, even the newly appointed Justice Amy Coney Barrett refused to be involved in the Pennsylvania suit, allowing for a unanimous vote to dismiss the case.

Bloomberg noted that with the conservative court at the crosshairs of politics lately, it managed to "distance itself from the Republican Party agenda."

Neal Katyal, who served as former president Barack Obama's top Supreme Court lawyer, said that with doubts of partisanship lingering in the high court, the decision "reminds folks that the court sits to resolve issues of law, not politics."

On the other hand, Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani said the Texas case was rejected "on standing" rather than merits. He said the campaign would continue fighting in court to overturn the results.

He also noticed that the courts appeared to want to "stay out of this" by refusing to give them a hearing. He called the move a "terrible mistake."
