Kamala Harris was a few battleground states away from being elected the nation’s first woman president, but she couldn’t overcome an unpopular incumbent president and a fed-up American electorate. Her supporters are reeling from a historic loss and a glass ceiling they feel is bolted down by centuries-old race and gender barriers.

Vice President Kamala Harris will speak at 4 p.m. Eastern Time Wednesday after losing the election to Republican former president Donald Trump. The Democratic candidate will address the nation in remarks at Howard University, her alma mater and a historically Black university that was also the site of her election night watch party.

Former President Donald Trump has clinched victory against Vice President Kamala Harris in the race for the presidency. The Associated Press called the race for Trump Wednesday morning, making him the 47th president of the United States.
