Vice President Kamala Harris is set to address her supporters across the nation in a concession speech at Howard University. The speech, scheduled for 4 p.m., is expected to echo the themes of unity and acceptance that characterized her campaign.
Harris, who has yet to connect with President-elect Donald Trump today, intends to reach out to him before her address. She is currently working on her speech at the Naval Observatory with her lead speechwriter and advisers.
The content of the speech is still being finalized, but aides anticipate that Harris will express gratitude to her supporters and deliver a message aimed at the younger demographic she engaged with during her campaign.
Following the election results, disappointment set in among Harris' supporters who had gathered at Howard University. Despite a night of celebration turning somber, many remained on the campus until the early hours of the morning.
Harris is expected to call for unity and finding common ground in her speech, urging the country to come together despite political differences. Her message is likely to emphasize the importance of working together for the greater good.
The event at Howard University is anticipated to be a significant moment in the aftermath of the election, as Harris addresses the nation and her supporters in a gesture of respect for the democratic process.
