NEW: Harris to Urge Supporters to Accept Election Results

Vice President Kamala Harris will implore her supporters across the nation to accept the results of the presidential election during an afternoon concession speech at Howard University, aides say, in an address that is intended to strike similar themes to the closing days of her campaign. She’ll also urge the country to work together to find areas of “common ground.”

Harris has reached out to President-elect Donald Trump, aides tell CNN, but has yet to connect with him today. It is her intention, aides say, to speak with him before her 4 p.m. address.

If so, good for her. These results are more definitive than those in the last two cycles, of course, so that should help. Thus far today, the reaction has mainly focused on the racism of the American electorate and not on the legitimacy of the outcome. Which is ... an improvement of sorts, I guess.
