Donald Trump declares victory in US Presidential Election

He has declared a 'magnificent victory'

Speaking in front of a large rally of supporters, Trump said his 'victory' will bring about a 'golden age' of America.

At the time of writing, the election has yet to be formally called for either candidate.

However, it does look likely that Trump will win both the Electoral College and popular votes in the country.

Trump said at his rally: "This is a magnificent victory for the American people, that will allow us to make America great again."

Trump vowed to fix border issues and said that he survived his assassination attempt earlier this year 'for a reason'.

Political leaders across the country have begun congratulating Trump in tweets, including Israeli leader Benjamin Netenyahu and French President Emmanuel Macron.

The Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris has confirmed she won't be speaking tonight as her supporters have been sent home from her rally.
