Vice President Kamala Harris finally conceded the election on Wednesday, nearly 12 hours after the race was called, saying she spoke to President-Elect Donald Trump to congratulate him on his blowout election victory.

Trump currently stands at 301 electoral votes to Harris’ 226 with Arizona’s results still outstanding, and that state is also leaning toward Trump. During her speech, Harris said, “While I concede this election, I do not concede the fight that fuels this campaign.”

“I am so proud of the race we ran and the way we ran it,” Harris told a crowd of her supporters in Washington, D.C. “Over the 107 days of this campaign, we have been intentional about building community and building coalitions, bringing people together from every walk of life and background — united by love of country.”

“The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not voted for, but here me when I say … the light of American’s promise will always burn bright as long as we never give up and as long as we keep fighting,” she added.

“Now I know folks are feeling and experiencing a range of emotions right now. I get it,” she added. “But we must accept the results of this election.”

Harris said that she spoke with Trump over the phone earlier on Wednesday and congratulated him on his election victory.

“I also told him that we will help him and his team with their transition,” Harris continued. “And that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.”

She vowed to continue to fight for Americans, saying, “I will never give up the fight for a future where Americans can pursue their dreams, ambitions, and aspirations, where the women of America have the freedom to make decisions about their own body, and not have their government telling them what to do.”

“We will never give up the fight to protect our schools and our streets from gun violence,” she added. “And America, we will never give up the fight for our democracy, for the rule of law, for equal justice, and for the sacred idea that every one of us, no matter who we are or where we start out, has certain fundamental rights and freedoms that must be respected and upheld.”

Harris also vowed that Democrats will “continue to wage this fight in the voting booth, in the courts, and in the public square.”
