Watch live: Kamala Harris delivers concession speech after loss to Donald Trump
Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver a speech Wednesday afternoon a few hours after officially conceding in a phone call to President-elect Donald Trump.
Harris, who became the Democratic presidential nominee after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race in July, will deliver the speech at 4 p.m. ET from Howard University in Washington, D.C., the White House confirmed.
Trump came out ahead of Harris in a hard-fought campaign that ended with Trump’s decisive victory in which he captured several battleground states including North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Harris did not make a speech during her election night party Tuesday night at Howard University, a historically Black college where she was an undergraduate.
As voting returns came in, it became clear early Wednesday morning Trump would ultimately win a second term in the White House.
