Kamala Harris urges supporters to accept results of election, not to 'despair'
Vice President Kamala Harris gives her concession speech in the 2024 presidential race, saying the outcome is not what she wanted.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter Ella Emhoff took to Instagram to clear her name following her stepmother’s loss to President-elect Donald Trump.
Emhoff was photographed sobbing while Harris delivered her concession speech at her alma mater, Howard University, on Wednesday.

"Truly no words. We are all going to get through this. It just [f—ing] hurts like a [b—-] right now and that’s ok," the post read.

Emhoff reassured followers that she was not having a mental breakdown to clear up the rumors floating around that she had checked into an institution following the results of the election.
"There’s a rumor about me having a mental breakdown and getting checked into a hospital. Not true. Also f–k you if you’re out there spreading that. There’s nothing wrong with showing emotion and crying. Anyone who says there is probably needs a good cry," Emhoff said in an Instagram post.
