Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign for the presidency ended after 107 days, falling short against former President Donald Trump. Harris conceded the race at her alma mater, Howard University, expressing disappointment in the election outcome. Harris's campaign faced challenges, including a lack of cohesion with staff from President Biden's team. Many voters remained unclear about her identity and vision, which hindered her ability to connect with key demographics, particularly Black and young voters. Despite initial enthusiasm, Harris struggled to create a distinct narrative separate from Biden's administration. Delayed outreach to Black voters and a focus on other demographics contributed to disappointing turnout, ultimately impacting her campaign's success.
