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, her aides say, in an address that is intended to strike similar themes to the closing days of her campaign, CNN reports.

Harris will 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 4pm address.

The vice president is working on her concession speech at the Naval Observatory, alongside her lead speechwriter Adam Frankel and other advisers.

The remarks are still coming together, aides say, but they expect her to thank her supporters and offer a message aimed at the younger voters she often reached out to on the campaign trail.
