Trump pleads not guilty to charges accusing him of trying to change the results of the 2020 election

Former US President Donald Trump has pleaded not guilty to four felony counts.

He's been accused of using unlawful means to change the results of the 2020 election, in the days before the January 6th, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

The charges include conspiracy to defraud the United States and conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding.

Trump is currently the front-runner for the Republican nomination for the 2024 election.

This is the third time in four months he's been arraigned.
