The mood outside the Palm Beach Convention Centre – where it’s 04:00 – is jubilant, as Donald Trump’s supporters come streaming out of his election night party.
Pickup trucks driving by blare their horns and a man on a motorcycle is playing a Trump themed hip-hop song.
Fatima Henges, 30, danced across the street as she left the party tonight and says she’s “happy, super happy” about the results so far.
“We don’t want to go home, but we gotta work tomorrow,” she says. “I think it’s good for everyone, a change.”
Roselba Morales, an immigrant from Mexico who became a naturalized citizen last year, had voted for Trump and is excited to see him performing well tonight.
“He wants peace, he wants security, he wants to save our children,” she says, waving a large Trump flag. “I’m feeling grateful, thank you Jesus!”
