Donald Trump defeats Kamala Harris to become 47th United States president.
Donald Trump has defeated Kamala Harris to become the second-time president of the United States of America by a heavy margin.
Needing 270 electoral votes to win presidency, Trump grabbed 277 votes though results of some of the states were still due.
Jubilant Donald Trump supporters gathered in Florida on election night, expecting the ex-president to speak after he notched key wins in the race for the White House.
Men donning formal suits and women in dresses mingled at the Palm Beach County Convention Center event, where they rubbed shoulders with a die-hard Trump fan sporting their political hero’s name emblazoned on a leather vest.

Whether dressed in formal attire or more casual wear, many of the attendees wore Trump’s signature red “Make America Great Again” baseball caps.
“I feel like Trump has won this election. This is over, and I feel like the world’s about to be much greater,” said Moses Abraham, 22.
Trump pushed closer to victory over Kamala Harris on Wednesday, leaving the Democrat the narrowest of remaining paths to stop him scoring a stunning political comeback.
“This is like 2016. I feel that we are on the same path to win. I feel very optimistic about tonight,” said Jo Ann Poly Calvo. “Donald Trump is the perfect fit for America.”
