The veep said that she spoke to Trump and congratulated him on his victory, "and told him we will help him and his team with their transition and we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power," she said.
"While I concede this election I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign," Harris added. "The fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness, and the dignity of all people... the ideals at the heart of our nation... that reflect America at our best."
