Donald Trump’s election night time celebration at Mar-A-Lago kicks off as Kamala Harris supporters head out early

A party atmosphere has kicked off at Mar-a-Lago as results from the presidential election continue to indicate Donald Trump may recapture the White House. 

As the former president won a wave of states early Tuesday night and looked set to retake several swing states he lost to Joe Biden in 2020, Trump’s camp said they were ‘confident’ of victory. 

Images from the event showed a relaxed Trump chatting it up with Elon Musk and Dana White, while guests shared a number of smiling selfies from Mar-a-Lago’s ballroom. 

But while Trump’s camp appears in high spirits, Kamala Harris‘ election night party reportedly fell ‘silent’ as results came in around midnight.

The Mar-a-Lago election night party saw a number of Trump allies and GOP influencers to watch the results pour in, with Musk also bringing one of his eleven children to the event. 

Former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville and Trump’s attorney Alina Habba have all shared smiling pictures from the party. 

Trump’s early dominance in the presidential race on Tuesday evening was cemented shortly before midnight when he was projected as the winner of the first swing state, North Carolina. 

With results in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan also showing Trump with leads going into the evening, Trump’s camp appeared confident. 

Musk was so confident in fact that he proclaimed victory for Trump on X, tweeting ‘game, set and match’ with six of the seven swing states still counting.  

And supporters who couldn’t swing an invite to Trump’s election night watch party set of fireworks and waved flags outside his Florida estate in anticipation of a possible victory.

But while the Republicans felt primed for victory, CNN anchor Abby Phillip reported before 11pm that Kamala Harris’ party was feeling the race slip away. 

‘I think the operative word is silence,’ Phillips reported. ‘There’s not a lot being said, because the Harris team appears to be searching for bright spots in the map, as these results very very, very slowly come in.’ 

With results still pouring in late Tuesday evening, Harris’ camp admitted the ‘blue wall’ of states including Pennsylvania and Michigan would be vital to any victory. 

Harris’ campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon reportedly sent a memo to staff assuring them that they still had a path to victory, and that with the margins so small and so slow to come in ‘we’ll see you tomorrow.’
