She added that the team is hopeful as results continue to roll in, and a Trump victory would represent a stunning upset against his rival Hillary Clinton.
Thousands of his supporters are gathered in a midtown Manhattan hotel ballroom watching the results on Fox News, AP reported.

But the mood, meanwhile, is dark at Clinton’s election night party.
A number of supporters were crying and anxiously staring at the big screens showing election results. But some began leaving as the race wore on into the early hours of Wednesday.
Thousands had gathered at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City for Clinton’s election night party.
Clinton and her family are watching the results from Peninsula New York—a hotel in midtown Manhattan.
Earlier, Clinton’s team canceled Election Day fireworks, the NYPD said.
