Raquel Debono and Date Right Energize NYC at ‘Make America Hot Again’ Election Night Party

While much of the country focused on election results, over 200 young conservatives gathered in Manhattan for the Make America Hot Again Election Night party hosted by Raquel Debono, Director of Marketing at Date Right. Held at The Palace lounge in downtown NYC, the event combined fries, Fox News, and fervent patriotism as attendees cheered Donald Trump’s projected lead in battleground states like Pennsylvania.

Debono, a key force behind Date Right's cultural movement, celebrated not just the election momentum but also the energy of bringing together like-minded young Republicans in a city often seen as politically hostile. "It was incredible to see over 200 young Republicans in NYC brought together to support our future president," she told Newsweek, emphasizing the importance of community and shared values in the heart of liberal America.
