Vice President Kamala Harris finally conceded defeat Wednesday before a crowd of distraught supporters at Howard University in Washington, D.C. Many of those supporters had gathered there the previous night in anticipation of Harris's triumphant victory, only to be sent home when Donald Trump's lead grew too large to overcome. "Good afternoon, good afternoon, good," Harris said to open her speech, delivered many hours after networks called the race for Trump, who won the Electoral College by a significant margin and was projected to win the popular vote as well. "Good afternoon, everyone. Good afternoon. Good afternoon. Good afternoon. Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
