Republicans gathered to show support for President Donald Trump as elections officials continue to count ballots on Nov. 5, 2020.

A group of Republicans held a press conference Wednesday to talk about the Arizona vote count for the presidential race.

They said that media outlets called the race too soon.

The press conference took place at Republican headquarters in Phoenix, where a group of Trump supporters waved flags and held signs in the parking lot.

Among the speakers were Rep. Debbie Lesko and party chairwoman Kelli Ward.

They said it is still possible for Donald Trump to catch Democratic challenger Joe Biden. The crowd responded.

The crowed chanted "four more years!" Then it disbursed.

Secretary of State Katie Hobbs has said that with thousands of votes left to be counted, it may be too soon for either party to celebrate.
