Cheers in Florida for what looks like a Trump victory

The message on the conservative television channel came two hours after the president of the election vigil declared Trump the winner.

His figures had not been officially confirmed. It was very even based on the numbers, which gave an advantage of about 51.5 percent for Trump versus 48.5 percent for Biden.

If Trump turns out to win in Florida, he is closer to re-election as president of the United States.

Whoever wins Florida has a great chance to take home the presidency. This applies to both Biden and Trump; the path to the 270 electoral votes required for the majority will be much easier.

“It’s amazing, not unexpected,” said Suzie Godinho, who works for a Palm Beach construction company.

– I always knew I would win. Thousands have attended Trump meetings, but no one has attended Biden meetings. We have enormous enthusiasm on our side, he says.

At the news of Trump’s superiority When I got there I asked her what she would do if Joe Biden won Florida and became president.

– Life must go on. We must respect the outcome of the elections and whoever the president is. We did it when Barack Obama was president.

Before the vote count began to tick on the big screens, with just Fox News, the audience for this “Victory Party” was warmed up with various rock songs and, finally, a prayer. A pastor said:

– We pray that God the Father protects our people, our country and our president, and we thank you for all that Trump has done for us.

Michael Althmer, a South Florida sales manager, didn’t doubt Trump’s victory in Florida for a moment.

– I am very sure. Biden is not yet in a position to be president of the United States. Those who vote for Biden actually vote for Kamala Harris, she will probably take over pretty quickly after Biden if she wins. And you still have nothing to say.

He considers Harris a “radical”, and if she came to power it would be bad. She has called for riots and violence.

– And the United States will become a socialist country like Venezuela. See what happened to this rich country when a socialist had been in power for a while, says Michael Althmer.

Do you have any doubts about Trump’s suitability as president?

– Ok, he’s not conventional, but he’s not a politician either. The hate campaign to which he has been subjected is incredible. They accuse him of being a racist, xenophobic and a woman. Still, he won here in 2016 and now in 2020.

What do you expect President Trump to do in a second term?

– Surely he’ll clean up the swamp. He will go after those who persecuted him all the years with the Russia investigation and the Supreme Court. In fact, I think they will start arresting people, especially the corrupt FBI and CIA executives who have worked for Biden and the Democrats.

So why has Trump run over Biden, given the challenger’s consistent leadership in opinion polls? One reason is undoubtedly that opinion polls have again, as in 2016, underestimated Trump’s support. Maybe it’s partly because Republicans don’t like to say who to vote for.

Another important factor It’s that the Trump campaign has had a completely superior “ground operation” to get its voters to the polls. While the Democrats have largely given up on this critical activity. When Biden won the party’s nomination in March, the crown pandemic ensued, and then the Democrats basically closed all door calls, and Biden himself completely refrained from meeting with voters on his campaign.

Of course, the fact that Trump has received so much support also has to do with the enormous enthusiasm of the president’s supporters. When DN visited the polling stations in Palm Beach, only Republicans showed up. This was due in part to the fact that the majority of Democrats had voted early. Even before Election Day, about 10 million of the 14 million registered voters had voted and, according to election researchers, 70 percent of them were Democrats.

One of the Republican activists Who I knew, Edward Moran, explained why he supported Trump:

– Because I want continuous well-being, Trump makes the American dream come true again, he has kept all his promises, he has built a wall to protect us from illegal immigrants, he has done things that no one has ever done, such as moving the embassy to Jerusalem … and Trump is a man who keeps his word. That’s what Americans want, one that delivers on its promises, Edward Moran said.

Do you think Trump will win in Florida?

– Yes I think so. He has strong support in Florida. We need people to do their job right.
