Donald Trump will be in Palm Beach on Election Night.

According to his campaign he plans to hold a news conference at 9 p.m.

Monday afternoon he made a campaign stop at the Tampa Convention Center.

Adding to the excitement on the eve of the Florida primary was the appearance of Sarah Palin. She had bowed out of the event after an accident put her husband in hospital, but made it anyway.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie also pumped up the Tampa crowd.

Attendees asked Trump a wide range of questions and were confident of the candidate's victory on Tuesday.

While the Tampa event did not see the level of violence at Trump rallies in recent days, there were at least two notable moments of protest.

Just after 3 p.m. someone shouting profanities was escorted out of the event. Not long after, police walked a man calling Trump a facist out of the town hall.
