People in Midtown Manhattan are cheering on the sidewalks, leaning out their windows and rushing to their rooftops to cheer and bang pots and pans, like they did in March during the 7 pm cheer. @JoeBiden has defeated @realDonaldTrump.

Someone sent me this video from Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Celebrations over the defeat of @realDonaldTrump are breaking out all over New York City. @JoeBiden will be the next President of the United States.

I have heard several people in Hell’s Kitchen shout “Ding dong, the witch is dead!”

People are gathering on the corners in Midtown Manhattan to celebrate the defeat of @realDonaldTrump

There are thousands of people in Times Square right now cheering, singing, dancing and celebrating the defeat of @realDonaldTrump.

There is a real outpouring of joy in Times Square over the election of @JoeBiden and the defeat of @realDonaldTrump

After days of wintry cold the weather is spring-like and almost 70 degrees in NYC today. Waves of cheers crash through the crowd in Times Square again and again as people celebrate the election of @JoeBiden and the defeat of @realDonaldTrump

A large protest march just came down from Columbus Circle to join thousands of people celebrating @JoeBiden’s win in Times Square. And because it’s Times Square they had to pass a man wearing a truly enormous panda costume.

There are lines of cars driving through Midtown Manhattan to celebrate the election of @JoeBiden and the defeat of @realDonaldTrump. Reminiscent of the Trump campaign’s “car parades.”

People still arriving in Times Square, where the celebrations continue over the election of @JoeBiden and the defeat of @realDonaldTrump. This could be a street party that lasts all night.

This is very much the vibe in Times Square right now

It is almost 10 o’clock at night and there are still thousands of people celebrating the victory of @JoeBiden and the defeat of @realDonaldTrump in Times Square. There may be even more people here than there were earlier this afternoon.

This is the most Times Square has ever felt like an actual community space for New Yorkers in my life

There is a a seemingly endless line of cars — it has been coming through Times Square since around noon — honking their horns to celebrate, with passengers leaning out the windows or standing up through sunroofs to cheer

One more video of the night time celebrations in Times Square.
