WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.—A room full of MAGA hat-wearing Americans cheered loudly at 1:47 a.m. Wednesday when Fox News announced that former President Donald Trump had enough electoral votes to win back the White House.
The news came shortly after pollsters called multiple swing states for the former president, including North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania.
The energy in the room grew at the convention center in West Palm Beach, where the Trump campaign held its election night watch party, as key swing states were called.
“Everything is trending his way, it looks like,” Mike Rump of Madison, Florida, told The Daily Signal at the campaign’s watch party earlier Tuesday night.
