Former President Donald Trump plans to address several thousand supporters who are gathering at the Palm Beach Convention Centre a few miles away from his Mar-a-Lago club at some point this evening, sources familiar with his plans told CNN, though when — and whether — that ultimately happens remains to be seen.

Trump told reporters earlier he wasn’t sure of his plans and that no speech had been written. But sources say they do expect him to speak regardless of whether an outcome has been determined and can quickly put one together.

Trump has privately expressed exasperation at the notion that a victor won’t be declared tonight. Most of his campaign advisers have cautioned that it’s unlikely they will know who won tonight as the votes are still being counted.

Whether he claims victory as ballots are still being counted — as he did falsely in 2020 — remains to be seen, even to his closest aides.
