Vice President Kamala Harris will address the nation for the first time after conceding defeat to former President Donald Trump at her alma mater on Wednesday.
Supporters at Howard University in Washington D.C. waited for Harris to speak late last night, but when the election seemed out of reach, the vice president postponed the speech until this afternoon.
Harris called the President-elect Wednesday morning to officially concede the race and congratulate him on his win in the presidential race. According to a campaign memo to media, the vice president emphasized the importance of a peaceful transfer of power to Trump, calling for him to be a president for “all Americans.”
