Harris Concedes to Trump: Aide

Vice President Kamala Harris has not spoken publicly since former President Donald Trump was projected as the winner of the presidency.

Vice President Kamala Harris called former President Donald Trump on Nov. 6 to congratulate him and concede the presidential race, according to a senior adviser to Harris.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the call.

The aide said Harris discussed the importance of a peaceful transfer of power with Trump.

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to a request for more information. The Trump campaign did not immediately return an inquiry.

Trump became the projected winner around 5:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday.

Some of Harris’s surrogates, including businessman Mark Cuban, offered congratulations to Trump around 1 a.m. Eastern Time after Pennsylvania was called for the former president.

Trump won the 2016 election with 304 electoral votes. President Joe Biden won the 2020 election with 306 electoral votes.

Trump as of 2:10 p.m. Eastern Time on Nov. 6 was up to 292 electoral votes, well above the 270 required to win the presidency.

Trump won Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, which he had taken in 2016 but lost in 2020, according to projections.

Current vote tallies in Nevada, which he lost in 2016 and 2020, and Arizona, which he won in 2016 but lost in 2020, favored Trump. Those states have not yet been called.
