The AZNews reports that Richmond emphasized that the campaign was focused on ensuring every vote is counted, with key results still pending in several states.
“We still have votes to count. We still have states that have not been called yet,” Richmond stated. “We will continue overnight to fight to make sure that every vote is counted, that every voice is heard. So, you won’t hear from the vice president tonight, but you will hear from her tomorrow.”
Following Richmond’s remarks, Harris’s team signaled no further public appearances for the night, advising supporters at Howard University to disperse. Despite the delay, many attendees remained optimistic about her chances of victory.
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump appeared to be gaining momentum. Projections from Decision Desk HQ showed Trump leading with 248 Electoral College votes, while Harris trailed at 213. Trump was projected to win Georgia and North Carolina and held narrow leads in critical battleground states, including Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Arizona—though all were still counting ballots, with results too close to declare.
With just one more win from the “blue wall” states—Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania—alongside Arizona, Trump could surpass the 270 electoral votes needed to reclaim the presidency. The counting process in key states like Arizona, Nevada, and Pennsylvania is expected to take several days to complete.

Harris’s campaign expressed continued optimism, pointing to potential paths to victory if she secures enough support from urban centers in Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philadelphia. These areas are anticipated to be pivotal in flipping the “blue wall” states needed to secure her a win.
