Hillary Clinton supporters are growing nervous as votes pour in for Donald Trump on Election Night. 
 
 Despite a palpable buzz in the air at the start of the evening, the crowd grew quiet as the swing states of North Carolina and Florida went to the Republican presidential nominee. Michigan, New Hampshire and Wisconsin all look as though they could swing for Trump, as well.

 Although cheers erupted when Clinton took California, the crowd cheers are few and very far between, and people seem to be in disbelief. Many are doing napkin math to see if a win is attainable. 
 
 In the hall where Clinton is set to deliver her speech — whether in victory or defeat — supporters sat slumped on the carpet before a stage empty of all but one imposing wooden lectern. Two veteran outside advisers to Clinton were spotted heading for the doors just before Florida was called for Trump. “We’re going home,” said one, asking to remain anonymous. “Can’t stand the tension in this room.” 
 
 Inside the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York City at Clinton’s election-night party, people are staring at the many screens waiting for the results. Barbara Tate, a longtime supporter of the Democratic nominee, said she was growing increasingly nervous as her friends already left. 
 
 “My heart is hanging on every word here,” she said. “I’m on the verge of tears. I’m so upset right now. I have a 20 year old daughter in college, and I just feel if he gets to be president… it’s all over. It’s just … nothing. I feel like we’re going to go back to a really scary world of hate and prejudice and anti-woman. But [holding out hope] ’til the last second.” 
 
 The dread continued as the night turned into morning. Supporters sat in the bleachers looking resigned. A string of young women was seen crying in the ladies’ room at the Javits Center. 
 
 Two friends who came down from Connecticut were debating whether they should stay or leave. 
 
 “It’s going to be a long night, I think,” Bibi Constantino told PEOPLE. “I want to see history being made, and I’m afraid if I leave I’ll regret it if she does win.” 
 
 PEOPLE spoke to Debra Messing and Tony Goldwyn, both showing their support for Clinton on Election Night, and both admitted they were nervous. 
 
 Goldwyn called the October surprise of FBI re-opening the Clinton email case “one of the reasons we’re seeing what we’re seeing here tonight,” saying that by the time FBI director James Comey admitted the emails revealed nothing new “it was too late.”

 Meanwhile, Trump supporters are celebrating. Those gathered are singing “God Bless America” and chanting “USA USA.” 
 
 “They’ve been very confident in this win,” a veteran Republican campaign advisor tells PEOPLE. “The enthusiasm you see on the road is palpable … You can cut it with a knife.” 
 
 “It’s only been two weeks since Hillary was leading in the polls, but he closed the gap and turned it around. For the last seven days, everyone inside the Pence campaign has been very confident in a win. We knew we would get Ohio. Florida is ours. North Carolina is a wonderful surprise. Trump is a rock star when you deal with him. He can talk to anybody. And Pence is the same.”

 WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Election Day 2016 (all times EST): 
 
 2:05 a.m. 
 
 Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman says it has nothing more to say even as votes turn against her. 
 
 John Podesta told a crowd in New York early Wednesday that with states still uncalled "we're not going to have anything else to say tonight." 
 
 Clinton trails in the Electoral College count and Donald Trump is close to breaking the 270-vote threshold to become president. 
 
 Podesta told the crowd Clinton "has done an amazing job" and "is not done yet."

 Hillary Clinton has won the statewide vote in Maine. 
 
 Clinton has won one of the state's congressional districts, giving her three electoral votes. Trump has won one district in the state and wins one electoral vote. 
 
 Trump also won the remaining congressional district in Nebraska, which gives him another electoral vote. 
 
 Clinton now has 218 electoral votes. Her Republican opponent has 266, just four shy of the threshold needed to be elected president. 
 
 ___ 
 
 1:36 a.m. 
 
 Donald Trump has won Pennsylvania and its prize of 20 electoral votes. 
 
 Trump's stunning victory in the key battleground state gives him 264 electoral votes. 
 
 It takes 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. Trump's opponent, Hillary Clinton, has 215. 
 
 Pennsylvania last voted for a Republican for president in 1988. Trump repeatedly campaigned there, believing his populist message would resonate with the state's working-class voters. 
 
 Clinton long viewed the state as a key part of her "firewall" and rallied in Philadelphia with President Barack Obama on Monday night. The Democrats also held their nominating convention in the city.

 1:30 a.m. 
 
 House Speaker Paul Ryan has congratulated Donald Trump on "his big night." 
 
 A Ryan spokeswoman confirms that the Republican speaker called the Republican presidential nominee Tuesday evening. The spokeswoman, AshLee Strong, says they had "a very good conversation."

 The mood is dark at Hillary Clinton's election night party. 
 
 Stony-faced supporters were crying and anxiously staring at the big screens showing election results. Some began leaving as the race wore on into the early hours of Wednesday morning. 
 
 Thousands had gathered at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City for Clinton's election night party. The glass-ceilinged building was picked as a nod to what aides expected would be the historic election of the first female U.S. president. 
 
 Clinton, her family and close aides have spent hours ensconced in a suite at the Peninsula New York, a luxury hotel in midtown Manhattan.

 12:30 a.m. 
 
 Donald Trump's campaign manager Kellyanne Conway is describing the mood inside Trump Tower as "buoyant." 
 
 She tells The Associated Press that the team is hopeful as results continue to roll in.

 Former Navy SEAL Eric Greitens has won the Missouri governor's race, beating Democratic Attorney General Chris Koster. The contest offered voters a vivid choice between experience and a fresh start. 
 
 Greitens, a first-time Republican candidate, has touted himself as an outsider and pledged to tackle corruption in the state Capitol. Koster took the opposite approach, emphasizing that his nearly 22 years in elected office make him qualified to run state government. 
 
 Without a voting record, Greitens was running on his time as a Navy SEAL officer and founder of a charity for veterans, The Mission Continues. Greitens' lengthy resume also includes stints as a Rhodes scholar and White House fellow, champion boxer and martial artist, a best-selling author and motivational speaker.

 Republicans have clinched continued House control for the new Congress. They'll likely lose seats from their current historic high, but they won enough seats to extend their six-year streak of commanding the chamber. 
 
 With voting results still being counted early Wednesday, Republicans have won at least 218 House seats. That exceeds the number needed to control the chamber. 
 
 Democrats started the year hoping Donald Trump's divisive presidential candidacy would cost Republicans bushels of House seats. His impact on down-ballot candidates proved spotty. 
 
 Republicans now control 247 seats in the House. With a smaller GOP majority, dissident hard-right conservatives could have added leverage to press House Speaker Paul Ryan and other party leaders on the budget and other issues.

 12:21 a.m. 
 
 Hillary Clinton has won Nevada and its six electoral votes. 
 
 Her victory there in the presidential election brings Clinton's Electoral College total to 215. Republican Donald Trump has 244 votes. 
 
 It takes 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. 
 
 Clinton's win in Nevada is the first time since the 1940s that the Democrats have carried the state in three consecutive elections. 
 
 The winner of the U.S. presidential election has failed to carry Nevada only once since 1908. 
 
 ___ 
 
 12:05 a.m. 
 
 Democrat Jay Inslee has been re-elected governor of Washington, beating challenger Bill Bryant. 
 
 Inslee, a former congressman, touted his environmental record throughout the campaign. He said the state is requiring the biggest polluters to reduce emissions and is promoting alternative energy. 
 
 Bryant, a former Seattle Port commissioner, sharply criticized Inslee in the months leading up to the November election. He said Inslee had mismanaged state departments, especially the state's mental health system. He also said Inslee had failed to come up with a plan to fund K-12 education, as mandated by the state Supreme Court.

 12:02 a.m. 
 
 Donald Trump has won the battleground state of Iowa. 
 
 He was awarded the state's six Electoral College votes early Wednesday. 
 
 Trump now has 244 electoral votes. His Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton has 209. 
 
 Iowa had voted for a Republican only once since 1984 but polls remained tight throughout the campaign. Trump proved popular with the state's sizable evangelical population while Clinton and her allies campaigned frequently in its college towns.

 11:53 p.m. 
 
 Donald Trump has won Utah. 
 
 The Republican nominee was awarded its six electoral college votes. 
 
 He now has 238 electoral votes. His Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton has 209. 
 
 Utah is normally one of the safest states on the map for Republicans. But the presence of independent Evan McMullin changed the calculation this year as polls consistently reflected a tight three-way race. Trump also had struggled with Mormons, who are normally reliably Republican voters.

 11:44 p.m. 
 
 Kate Brown has been re-elected governor of Oregon over Republican newcomer Bud Pierce. 
 
 Brown became governor in February 2015 after the resignation of John Kitzhaber over an influence-peddling scandal. Brown was then secretary of state and next in line to succeed him. 
 
 Tuesday's gubernatorial vote was a special election to fill the remainder of Kitzhaber's four-year term.

 11:43 p.m. 
 
 Donald Trump's victory in Ohio demonstrates the Republican nominee's ability to energize working-class voters outside of America's largest cities. 
 
 Mahoning County stands out as a working-class county where organized labor still maintains political clout. Trump didn't win the county that surrounds Youngstown. But he might as well have. 
 
 Hillary Clinton won by just 3 percentage points and less than 3,500 votes. Four years ago, President Barack Obama outpaced Mitt Romney by almost 25,000 votes on his way to a 28-point margin in the county. Clinton fell more than 20,000 votes shy of Obama's total. 
 
 Youngstown is represented in Congress by a Democrat who offers some of the same populist appeal to labor as Trump. But those loyalties to Rep. Tim Ryan apparently didn't transfer to Clinton.

 11:37 p.m. 
 
 Republican Lt. Gov. Phil Scott has won election as governor of Vermont. 
 
 He defeated Democrat Sue Minter. 
 
 The popular construction company executive and part-time race-car driver had served three two-year terms as Vermont's part-time lieutenant governor. He was previously in the state Senate. 
 
 Scott takes over in January from Democratic Gov. Peter Shumlin, who decided not to seek a fourth two-year term.

 11:36 p.m. 
 
 The crowd at Donald Trump's election watch party is jubilant as returns continue to roll in putting him closer to 270 Electoral College votes. 
 
 Supporters packed into a hotel ballroom in midtown Manhattan are breaking into chants of "USA!" and embracing each other in groups. 
 
 Others are breaking into song, bellowing "God Bless America" at the top of their lungs. 
 
 The screens in the ballroom are turned to Fox News. When the station shows images of Clinton's election headquarters, the room breaks into boos and chants of one of Trump's slogans: "Drain the swamp!"

 Donald Trump has won Georgia. 
 
 The Republican nominee on Tuesday was awarded its 16 electoral votes. 
 
 Trump now has 232 electoral votes while his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton has 209. 
 
 The Democrats had some hopes that changing demographics in Georgia could allow then to flip the reliably Republican state but their efforts fell short.

 11:29 p.m.

 The victory in Tuesday's elections brings the former secretary of state's electoral vote total to 209. Republican Donald Trump has 216.

 California voters passed a ballot measure to legalize the recreational use of marijuana, giving a big boost to the campaign to end the drug's national prohibition. 
 
 Adults older than 21 can legally possess up to an ounce of marijuana and grow six plants. 
 
 California was one of five states where votes were considering the legalization of recreational marijuana Tuesday. Four other states were considering measures to legalize medicinal marijuana. 
 
 So far, voters in Florida and North Dakota have also passed marijuana measures Tuesday. 
 
 Collectively, it's the closest the U.S. has ever come to national referendum on marijuana. ||||| Hillary Clinton’s bid for history appeared dashed Tuesday when Donald Trump locked up several key states to pull within striking distance of a stunning presidential upset. 
 
 The Democratic nominee’s Election Night party at the Jacob Javits Center kicked off with the enthusiasm of a pep rally. 
 
 Clinton was leading in most of the polls before Election Day — and early results in the crucial state of Florida looked promising. 
 
 The few-thousand-strong crowd pulsed with excitement. The West Side convention hall — with its glass ceiling — appeared to provide the perfect setting for Clinton’s long-awaited coronation.

 But as the night wore on — with Trump notching crucial wins in Ohio, Florida and North Carolina — Clinton's victory party began to feel more like a hospital waiting room. 
 
 Clinton operatives who had happily held court with the press early in the night were suddenly nowhere to be found. Others paced nervously outside the party talking on the phone and waving off reporters.

 “This means we have a lot to reckon with,” McKesson said. “It shouldn't be this close. He ran on a platform based on hate and bigotry and many in America are supporting it. This is frightening.” 
 
 The feeling was the same outside the convention center where hundreds of Clinton supporters had gathered for what they thought would be an early celebration. 
 
 Potential Trump presidency leaving Clinton supporters horrified 
 
 "It's hard to comprehend,” said Linda Khan, 49, an Upper West Side mother of two teenage girls. “Sadly, New York is not the rest of the U.S. I'm very afraid for women's rights.”

 Marta Karamuz, a 39-year-old architect, cast her disappointment in even more dramatic terms. “I'm just really disappointed in humankind at the moment,” Karamuz said. 
 
 “Considering she's the most qualified person to ever run for President, I can't understand why people are not voting for her.” 
 
 A loss would mark Clinton’s second failed attempt at becoming commander-in-chief — following her 2008 primary loss to Barack Obama — and likely the end of her political career.

 Her campaign was hobbled less than two weeks before Election Day when FBI director James Comey announced that the agency was reopening its probe into her handling of classified emails. 
 
 Comey informed Congress that agents had discovered tens of thousands of more emails from Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin, amid an investigation into her estranged husband, serial sexter Anthony Weiner. On Sunday, Comey cleared her in the investigation again. 
 
 Still, few were expecting Trump to snatch victory on Election Day. 
 
 Clinton began her day to cheers — and chants of “Madam President.”

 A crowd of roughly 150 people showered the Democratic nominee with adulation as she arrived at a polling station in her hometown of Chappaqua alongside former President Bill Clinton. 
 
 “This is absolutely the epicenter of the world today,” Coline Jenkins, 63, said outside the Douglas Grafflin Elementary School. 
 
 Bill Clinton, after casting his vote, told reporters he’s relishing his role as political spouse — joking that he’s had “15 years of experience.” His run, like his wife’s, now appears over.

– A shock win for Donald Trump may be all but inevitable, according to the latest results—but whatever happens, Hillary Clinton will not be speaking tonight, according to campaign chairman John Podesta. "We're not going to have anything more to say tonight," he told the crowd at Clinton's election night party at the Javits Center in New York after 2am, NBC reports. He told the crowd Clinton "has done an amazing job" and, with some states still uncalled, "is not done yet," the AP reports. Podesta said there are many votes still to be counted, and urged supporters to get some sleep. People reports that the "palpable buzz in the air" at the Javits Center earlier in the evening vanished as results from swing states including Florida and North Carolina rolled in. "I feel nauseous," one top campaign official said. As the night went on, the gathering developed an atmosphere that the New York Daily News likened to a hospital waiting room—and the campaign officials that had earlier been chatting to reporters had largely vanished to staff-only areas.
