Kamala Harris Calls President-Elect Donald Trump, Emphasizes Peaceful Transition of Power

In a significant moment following the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris personally called President-elect Donald Trump to congratulate him on his victory, according to a senior aide. Harris conveyed her commitment to a smooth and peaceful transfer of power, underscoring her dedication to serving as a leader for all Americans, regardless of political differences.

Sources close to Harris say she spent much of the day preparing a concession speech, which she plans to deliver at 4 p.m. ET at Howard University, her alma mater. Her team had not heavily prepared a concession speech prior to Election Day, as they had anticipated a potentially closer result and had instead focused on urging patience among supporters. However, with Trump securing a decisive win, Harris pivoted to a message of unity and respect for the democratic process.

Biden Expected to Reach Out to Trump

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is also preparing to acknowledge Trump’s victory. A White House official reported that Biden is expected to reach out to Trump on Wednesday, followed by a public statement addressing the election results and expressing his hopes for the future of the country.

As the U.S. watches the transition unfold, Harris’s call to Trump reinforces a commitment to democratic principles and unity. Her concession speech at Howard University will likely reflect these values, encouraging Americans to come together as the nation prepares for a new administration.
