“I know there are people of various political views watching tonight,” Harris said
“And I want you to know; I promise to be a president for all Americans,” she said.
“I will be a president who unites us around our highest aspirations.”
She vowed to be a president who leads and listens, and is “realistic” and “practical”.
According to her, she will be a president who “has common sense” and “always fights for the American people”.
