MEGYN KELLY (HOST): Why did he say that -- that he's not going to necessarily accept the results of the election?

JASON MILLER: Megyn, no one has ever conceded an election before the election actually takes place.

KELLY: It's not conceding.

MILLER: Nobody wants an Al Gore who concedes and then un-concedes and concedes again. 

KELLY: It's not conceding. It's do you trust in the integrity of the process? Will you accept the results, win or lose?

MILLER: Let me tell you exactly what Mr. Trump was going tonight. He was putting those who might be looking to commit voter fraud -- he's putting them on notice that we're going to be watching, and we're going to make sure that we have honest and fair elections. That is what he is doing. 

KELLY: So he doesn't trust in the integrity of the American electoral system?

MILLER: He wants to make sure we have honest and fair elections. It's leverage. That's exactly what Mr. Trump is saying. 

KELLY: Against whom? 

MILLER: Those who would commit voter fraud. 

KELLY: How will he then exercise that leverage if he's displeased with the results? 

MILLER: You want to go and make sure that people know that we're going to be watching exactly what's going to be happening, and we're going to make sure that the election is certified and we're going to make sure the election is conducted honestly and forthright. And then we'll address it after that.
