Clinton to address supporters Wednesday morning

Published November 9, 2016 1:10pm ET



Defeated Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton plans to speak to supporters for the first time following the election at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday.

A statement from Clinton’s campaign reported Clinton would speak at the New Yorker Hotel in New York City, in what will be her first remarks since conceding the election to President-elect Donald Trump. Clinton elected not to speak to supporters early Wednesday morning after Trump’s victory appeared imminent.

Trump told supporters in a victory speech Wednesday morning Clinton had called him and conceded the election privately. It’s expected that she will do so publicly during her speech Wednesday morning.

The speech was originally scheduled for 9:30 a.m., but was pushed back by the campaign just after 9 a.m.
