Harris delivers uplifting concession speech following defeat to Trump: 'Don't ever give up'

We're really proud to support her and the impact that she's made thus far, regardless of the outcome,

Howard University junior Ajoi Adams, 20, told Newsweek late Tuesday prior to Trump's win

We've been reading up on the 'red mirage,'

Muhammad said

I'll leave you with this: losing is incredibly painful,

O'Malley Dillon continued

I'll say this, it was bad form for Kamala Harris to skip addressing supporters last night at Howard University,

Troy Donte Prestwood wrote on X early Wednesday

I'm overwhelmed with pride,

Muhammad told Newsweek late Tuesday steps from the university's main quad as she awaited election returns during Harris' watch party

We will never give up the fight for our democracy, the rule of law, of the rule of justice and the sacred idea that everyone of us, no matter who we are or where we start out, have certain fundamental rights and freedoms that must be upheld,

Harris said

I know many people feel like we're entering a dark time,

Harris said

To the young people who are watching, it is OK to feel sad and disappointed,

Peter Loge said

I think Representative Cheney is looking for a Republican Party that she grew up in, that so many of my Republican friends grew up in, and she is not done,

Loge said

In the US we're catching up with the rest of the world and being comfortable with women in power,

Peter Loge, former senior advisor to the Obama administration, said

Michelle Obama does not want to run for office,

Professor Geer said

She's very young, very talented,

Geer said

The blame for the loss may well be placed more on Biden than on Harris,

Professor Sabato added

I think it might be a big leap for her, but I think she's incredibly popular,

Loge told Newsweek

A lot of us here in Washington, D.C., we have a political crush on Michelle Obama,

Peter Loge told Newsweek

Amy Klobuchar should not be underestimated. She's talented,

Professor Geer said, while Peter Loge described the Minnesota senator as one of her party's "rising stars."

If Donald Trump isn't on the ticket, one could imagine Haley picking up the mantle,

Loge told Newsweek

Women are positioned and well-positioned to run for the presidency now in ways that they weren't before,

she said
