Supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris‘ bid for the White House showed up to Howard University — Harris’ Alma Mater — on election night (Nov. 5) to clock the election results in real-time, hear her final thoughts on the race, and celebrate a potential win for the HBCU alum.
With Republican nominee Donald Trump gaining an early lead, Harris supporters were still confident she could possibly make headway as the night went on. Trump’s ability to secure the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania, however, essentially confirmed he’d have a second term in office following his 2016-2020 stint.
Rather than formerly concede the night/ early morning of the election — as most candidates have — Harris opted to not addresses her crowd of supporters, with Former US Representative Cedric Richmond announcing that she would, instead, address her followers the following day (Nov 6).
The dejected crowd then made their way home, leaving behind a night of promise that didn’t quite work out for their candidate. Check out gut-wrenching snaps from Howard University the night VP Kamala Harris battled Donald Trump for the nation’s highest office below.
