There’s a range of emotions in the United States following Election Day.
Donald Trump has claimed a likely win, securing more than the 270 Electoral College votes needed to secure the presidency.
While Kamala Harris is yet to formally concede, CNN projects that Trump will secure 276 votes, and Harris only 223.
US Correspondent Mitch McCann told Ryan Bridge the mood was sombre at the Democratic watch party in Detroit, the event even closing down early as everyone was going home.
On the other hand, he says there are a lot of happy Republicans, with one of his contacts feeling “like a million bucks!!!!!”.
