Description
The presidential race is called. And the candidates have spoken. That includes Vice President Kamala Harris, who spoke Wednesday afternoon in Washington D.C. after conceding to President-elect Trump.

And as votes are still being counted, it looks like the party has a solid chance of taking the House as well. We discuss what the Republican Trifecta means for the election. Want to support 1A?
