Harris Makes Concession Speech

WASHINGTON (AP) — Faced with a sweeping rejection by American voters, Kamala Harris has conceded the presidential election to Donald Trump and is encouraging supporters to continue fighting for their vision of the country. The Democratic vice president said the battle would continue “in the voting booth, in the courts and in the public square.” “Sometimes the fight takes a while,” Harris said at Howard University, her alma mater, where she had hoped to make a victory speech after the election. “That doesn’t mean we won’t win.” Harris’ decisive defeat shattered hopes that she could rescue Democrats’ chances after President Joe Biden’s reelection effort stalled and she replaced him at the top of the ticket.
