Hillary Clinton Set To Make Concession Speech



Hillary Clinton will face the American public for the first time since her crushing and unexpected presidency loss to Republican Donald Trump stunned the world and 
rocked global financial markets.
Clinton is to address reporters on Wednesday from a hotel in New York City not far from where she had planned a party to celebrate on election night.
The only campaign figure to address the Tuesday night crowd at the Javits Center was campaign chief John Podesta, who told distraught supporters: 'They're still counting votes, and every vote should count.' 
Shortly after sending her campaign chairman to give her supporters that it was not over, Clinton made a private call to Trump to concede - a humiliating and bizarre end to a political career which had put her on the verge of being the first female president. 
Trump won with 276 electoral votes to Clinton's 218. Meanwhile, Clinton surpassed Trump in the popular vote as of Wednesday morning, and it was announced at about 10am that she had won Minnesota.
