Harris conceded to Trump Wednesday, Nov. 6, with a phone call, then a speech.
“We must accept the result of this election,” Harris said during her concession speech. “Earlier today, I spoke with President-elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I also told him that we will help him and his team with their transition and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.”

Harris is not the first vice president to oversee Congress’ certification of an election they lost. Vice President Al Gore did it in 2000 after he lost to George Bush.
On Jan. 6, 1961, then-Vice President Richard Nixon certified his loss to then-Sen. John F. Kennedy.
“This is the first time in 100 years that a candidate for the presidency announced the results of an election in which he was defeated and announced the victory of his opponent,” Nixon told Congress. “I do not think that we could have a more striking and eloquent example of the stability of our constitutional system.”
Due to the Jan. 6, 2021 riot when Trump supporters tried to stop Joe Biden’s election certification, the Department of Homeland Security has designated Jan. 6, 2025, a National Special Security Event. Preparations are already underway, like the installation of fencing around the Capitol building.
