Thousands of people have flooded the streets of New York, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle, Washington DC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland and Austin – mostly Democratic cities who voted for Hillary Clinton in Wednesday’s shock election result.
Republican Donald Trump claimed the victory in an upset that will see him become the 45th US President.
In New York, thousands of demonstrators took to the streets chanting “not my President” and “no racist USA” on the march to Trump Tower on 5th Avenue.
While there was no violence involved in the New York rally, police made four arrests.
Behind the rallies are Trump’s contentious plans to cut immigration and build a wall with Mexico.
In LA protesters burnt an effigy of Trump outside city hall.
