Vice President Kamala Harris has formally conceded the U.S. presidential election to Donald Trump following her electoral defeat.
In a call with Trump, Harris expressed her commitment to a smooth and peaceful transition, highlighting the importance of unity for the nation.
According to a senior aide, Harris discussed “the importance of a peaceful transfer of power and being president for all Americans.”
Harris’s concession speech is expected later today in Washington, where she will address the nation on her commitment to fostering stability and unity.
Trump’s win, securing 292 electoral votes to Harris’s 224, makes him the first president in over 130 years to win a non-consecutive second term.
His victory, driven by substantial gains across diverse voter groups, highlights a shift in his support base.
Harris’s decision to concede gracefully reflects her dedication to the American people, prioritizing the nation’s well-being over political rivalry and reinforcing a legacy of leadership that values peace over division.
