"Today, my heart is full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for the country and full of determination. The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what we voted for. But... The light of America's promise will always burn brightly as long as we never give up. We have to accept the outcome of this election."

"While I admit to losing this election, I don't admit defeat in the fight that fueled this campaign," Harris said. It's a fight for freedom, for opportunity, for justice and dignity for all, a fight for the core ideals of our nation, ideals that reflect America at its best."
