Kamala Harris yet to speak as Trump wins White House

Kamala Harris has lost her bid to become America’s first woman leader, as her Republican rival Donald Trump surged to a decisive victory in the US presidential election.

The vice-president is yet to speak or concede, despite it becoming clear by Wednesday morning that Trump had secured enough votes in key swing states to win.

Harris cancelled her expected election night appearance at Howard University in Washington DC, where she studied as an undergraduate, as Trump began to make steady gains.
