A few thousand Trump supporters gathered at the amphitheater at the Florida State Fairgounds on Saturday morning for a rally.  Mr Trump spoke for about an hour on issues such as repealing Obamacare, arresting Hillary Clinton, and building a wall between the U.S. and Mexico.

"Oh we will build the wall, the harder they fight us, the higher it goes," said Trump.

Trump talked to the crowd about the importance of getting out to vote.  He feels confident going into election day, but many polls show Florida being a close race.

"We are winning in a lot of polls, we don't have enough time to talk about them, too many of them," said Trump.

Some of his most enthusiastic supporters arrived early Saturday.

 "I think he's going to win in a landslide watch my words landslide, I want him to keep on track nothing disrupt him just keep on track," said supporter Lou Hubbell.

Early voting numbers are high in Florida with more than 5-million people already casting ballots. 

Trump supporters are excited for election day.

"It's a good thing I think it's going to be a new day in America and we are going to be the country that Ronald Reagan was the president of," said supporter Doug Coggeshall.

Trump will be back in Florida on Monday with a visit to Sarasota.
