- Vice President Kamala Harris addressed a crowd of supporters hours after Donald Trump was projected the winner of the 2024 presidential election. She encouraged her supporters not to lose hope, saying that while she concedes the election, "I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign."

- The Trump transition team is actively working on staffing up. Trump is expected to place a premium on Cabinet nominees without backgrounds in government service, and Donald Trump Jr. is seen as a final gatekeeper for job candidates.
- Republicans will control the Senate, though Democrats were projected the winners of competitive Senate seats in Wisconsin and Michigan. House control remains uncalled.
