WASHINGTON, DC / OSLO (Dagbladet): So far, Donald Trump has copied Election Day in 2016, when he shocked the entire United States and won the battle against Hillary Clinton.
Around 7 a.m.
Many thousands had turned up at the public meeting, which ended in the middle of the night. The president also held his last campaign rally in 2016 in Grand Rapids.
Earlier today, he also copied on Election Day 2016, when he called “Fox and Friends” at eight in the morning. It was an almost sentimental and talkative president who told his favorite show that he was proud of what he had accomplished as president.
Donald Trump claims Tuesday that he does not have a speech prepared for any of the possible election results. Nor did it in 2016, according to the New York Times, which describes Trump as superstitious at the time.
– Hopefully we only do one of the parts, and thus, it is easy to win. Losing is never easy, not for me, Trump said, a little rusty in his voice, when he met with campaign officials in Arlington, outside of Washington, DC, today.

Barricades the city
CNN also mentions Trump as a superstitious politician who loves routines. It is said that he tried to recreate the whole atmosphere of the 2016 victory in this election.
It happens at the same time that the capital is turned upside down. In recent days, barriers have been built in much of the city around shops, restaurants and hotels in much of the city center. The White House is surrounded by new and reinforced fences several hundred meters around the presidential residence.
Construction workers stayed up late Tuesday night when Trump arrived in Washington, DC
After the president made the phone call to “Fox and Friends,” he traveled to Arlington, Virginia, outside of Washington, DC, where he visited his own campaign staff and paid tribute to their work.

Banquet at the White House
The president is expected to spend election night in the White House, now sealed. Some 400 people will be invited to an election vigil, but the details of the event are unclear.
Initially, Trump had plans to celebrate with his followers at his own luxury hotel in the capital.
Dagbladet was present at the hotel on Monday night. The fence surrounding it has also been installed, and for reasons unknown, Trump is said to have chosen to leave the party at his own hotel and prefer to stay at the White House.
In any case, Trump is likely to be late at night. In four states, including the state of North Carolina, it has already been decided that polling stations will extend their opening hours.

Fight for postal votes
There is also uncertainty about how the record 100 million early votes will be handled across states.
The large number of early votes can delay the results, but also lead to a settlement in the courts between Democrats and Republicans due to disagreement over which votes get passed.
The disagreement is, among other things, whether the postal votes will arrive on Election Day. Today, a federal judge in Washington DC ordered the postal service to empty its stores of postal votes and send them to polling stations immediately for recount.
There may be up to 300,000 mail-in ballots in several key states, where the postal service claims to have sent the letters, but the election commission cannot see that they have received them. There are twelve postal districts affected by the order, writes the New York Times.
