Donald Trump on the brink of the US presidency as Pennsylvania flips to Republicans

Donald Trump won Florida, Ohio, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, The Telegraph reported on Wednesday.

Donald Trump won the key swing states of Florida, North Carolina and Ohio early this morning, as he marched towards the White House.

The Republican surpassed expectations and confounded pollsters in Florida, where Hillary Clinton had been expected to win following a surge in the Hispanic vote.

Mrs Clinton’s hopes of a swift victory faded as the Republican picked up a series of states early on and maintained his momentum. 

Mr Trump’s unexpected success in Florida was backed up by wins in the key states of Ohio, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Mrs Clinton managed to win the battlegrounds of Virginia and Colorado, but she needed to take Michigan, Nevada, Iowa and Pennsylvania to have any chance.
