Donald Trump has declared victory in the US election as he addressed jubilant supporters in Florida – but votes in key states are still being counted.
Speaking at West Palm Beach, he told crowds: “Look what happened – is this crazy?” – adding: “I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president.”
He told the crowd he had won a “magnificent victory for the American people”.
Trump has won in the key battleground states of Georgia, Pennsylvania and North Carolina – and is leading in several others – narrowing Kamala Harris’s path to victory significantly.
Harris will now not address her supporters until later on Wednesday, her campaign chair has said.
The vice president had been scheduled to make a speech at her alma mater, Howard University, after the polls closed, but the mood grew sombre as results began to trickle in.
