Trump Is Apparent Winner in Florida, NBC News Projects

Trump Camp In Party Mode

Donald Trump's election night rally has taken on a party atmosphere as good news rolls in for the Republican presidential nominee.

Staffers began hugging one another and drinks kept flowing after North Carolina was announced as a win for Trump.

Staffers immediately started spontaneously chanting "Florida" as VIPs and Trump supporters watched to see if Trump emerged the clear winner in the key battleground state. It is still too close to call.

The Trump Organization's Friends of Trump are currently all-smiles and some staffers are pleasantly surprised to not have gone back home yet.

Michigan, Michigan, Michigan

Team Trump expressing real confidence about Michigan. "It will be tight, but we will win Michigan," a source watching the results with Trump tells me.

Michigan is where Trump made the last stop of his campaign, in the wee hours of this morning. He said, tomorrow will be our "Independence Day." Added, "We're hours away from once-in-a-lifetime change."

Sources close to Trump were touting particularly high turnout in MI and NH. The source points to lower than normal African-African support for Clinton. "She simply doesn't have the Barack Obama coalition."

Separate aide remarks: "Clinton camp should be freaking out. We're in great spirits."

Florida OKs Medical Marijuana as Nine States Vote on Pot

Floridians with a debilitating medical illness - as determined by a state physician -- will soon be able to use medical marijuana, after voters overwhelmingly approved a ballot provision legalizing it on Tuesday.

Just two years after the state rejected a similar measure, a vast majority of Florida voters cast ballots in favor of Amendment 2, according to an early count posted by Florida's Secretary of State, exceeding the 60 percent threshold needed to approve the legislation and insert an amendment into the state constitution that would allow people with cancer, epilepsy, and other serious conditions to use the substance if their doctor recommends it.

Nine states are voting on how to handle marijuana use on Tuesday, with five states voting on full legalization and four states weighing medical marijuana on the ballot.

History Made: First African-American Woman Elected to Congress From Delaware

Lisa Blunt Rochester made history tonight as the first woman and first African-American to be elected to Congress from Delaware. Rochester is no stranger to firsts and no stranger to politics. She was the first black woman to serve as Delaware's Secretary of Labor, and as Delaware's first African-American Deputy Secretary of Health and Social Services and State Personnel Director, where she investigated the Delaware State Police for racial and sexual discrimination.

The mother of two college grads made jobs, affordable education, women's health and equal pay, and preventing gun violence key pillars of her campaign.

Her father, Ted Blunt, also served as Wilmington City Council president.

Democrats are 'Much More Nervous'

While the Clinton Campaign and top surrogates insist they still have a path to 270 and are hopeful their firewall of Pennsylvania, Colorado, Michigan and will hold.

Top Democrats who have been invited to watch with the Clinton team acknowledge they're "much more nervous."

One person who is in a small room off the main floor of the Javits Center where the Clinton watch party is said the mood is "quiet." Another Democrat just looked stunned and shook his head.

UPDATE: NBC News projects that Clinton has won Colorado.
