Harris is expected to make remarks at 4 p.m. (11 p.m. ET) at Howard University, the university from which she graduated and which she chose for election night.

After the first results on Troy night, when the polls closed, Harris had avoided making any public appearances since the results were putting Trump in victory lane.

Trump himself came out after midnight Tuesday (Wednesday morning in Greece) to declare victory. Harris, however, was nowhere to be found.
