Vice President Kamala Harris publicly acknowledged on the 6th (local time) that she lost to former President Donald Trump in the recent presidential election. Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, delivered a concession speech at her alma mater Howard University in Washington D.C., stating, “We must accept the election results.”
Vice President Harris remarked, “This is not the outcome we wanted nor the result we aimed and fought for.” She further emphasized, “I will never give up the fight for freedom, opportunity, fairness, and dignity for everyone, the fight for the ideals that represent America at the center of this country.”
This implies that despite the defeat in the presidential election, she is not considering retirement from politics. Meanwhile, with Vice President Harris acknowledging the results, former President Trump is set to smoothly transition into his role as the 47th President of the United States next January.
Earlier, Vice President Harris reportedly congratulated former President Trump over the phone, discussing the importance of a peaceful transfer of power and being a president for all Americans.
