President Joe Biden released a statement on Wednesday evening following his Vice President Kamala Harris' Presidential election loss.
"What America saw today was the Kamala Harris I know and deeply admire," Biden said after Harris' first public address after the loss at Howard University.
Biden continued: "She's been a tremendous partner and public servant full of integrity, courage, and character. Under extraordinary circumstances, she stepped up and led a historic campaign that embodied what's possible when guided by a strong moral compass and a clear vision for a nation that is more free, more just, and full of more opportunities for all Americans."
President-elect Donald Trump won back the White House overnight on Wednesday in a stunning political comeback.
