The story
The 2016 presidential election campaign in the United States has ended.
Speaking at his final rally in Michigan, Donald Trump said he was offering a once-in-a-lifetime political change and would restore honesty to the US government.
In her final rally, Hillary Clinton, who's leading in the opinion polls by a few percentage points, said America needed to build bridges not walls – a reference to Mr Trump's plan for a wall along the border with Mexico.
