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.  

Vice President Kamala Harris‘ campaign had announced around 12:45 a.m. Wednesday that the Democratic nominee would not speak—nor concede, it turned out—until later in the day.

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 late Tuesday night.  

Both Trump and Harris had spent extensive time campaigning in Pennsylvania, considered a must-win state for the vice president.

Harris and Trump remained neck and neck in that state as votes were counted Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning.  

“The numbers that are coming [out of] Pennsylvania look gratifying,” former Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla., said a few hours before pollsters called the state for Trump. “I didn’t expect us to win it, but right now I think we have a very good chance.” 

One former Pennsylvania resident, Christian singer and political activist Sean Feucht, said he believed Trump would do well among the state’s male, Amish, and Mennonite voters.  

“People are fired up there,” Feucht said of Pennsylvania. “It’s probably going to take them a while to count it, but I’m pretty confident that Pennsylvania’s going to go to Trump.”

Many of Trump’s most loyal supporters attended the watch party, including Blake Marnell, also known as “brick suit.”  

Marnell told The Daily Signal that he bought the suit to “troll the Left” and then wore it to a Trump rally, where the former president noticed Marnell in the crowd. Trump called him up on stage to show the audience the suit.  

“When the president of the United States calls you up on stage in a brick suit, you just become ‘brick suit’ and you don’t fight it,” Marnell laughed.  

Iowa pastor Joel Tenney and his wife Sarah volunteered for the Trump campaign and sported “Make America Great Again” caps Tuesday night. Tenney said he was “praying for a landslide victory” for Trump.  

Asked what he thinks about the argument that the church should stay out of politics, Tenney called that notion “communist propaganda.” 

Assuming a Trump victory, multiple supporters told The Daily Signal that they would like the president-elect to take action to close the border on Jan. 20, his first day in office.  

As a Jewish woman, Monica Guttman said, she hopes the president-elect also will act on his first day back to bring the hostages home.  

“I would ask Trump to bring our hostages home now, because it’s one year and change and this administration currently has done nothing,” Guttman said.  

The crowd waited with building anticipation early Wednesday morning for Trump to take the stage and deliver a victory speech.

He did so just before 2:30 a.m.
