Donald Trump has a final message to his supporters in the election's waning hours, saying: “We have to win.” 

His final rally was on Monday night in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he said his “new adventure” will be “making America great again.” 

“If we don't win, this will be the single greatest waste of time, energy and money in my life.” 

Hillary Clinton also made her final push last night, where her campaign finale included performances by Lady Gaga and Jon Bon Jovi.

She called on voters to reject Donald Trump's “dark and divisive” vision in Raleigh, North Carolina, adding that there there's no reason why “America's best days are not ahead of us.” 

The Democratic candidate told cheering supporters that their “work will be just beginning” after Election Day. 

Ms Clinton will end her campaign by greeting supporters at the Westchester airport, in New York, where she's expected to land in the early hours of this morning, local time.
