Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday thanked supporters during a virtual call and vowed that the "fight's not over" in her first remarks since conceding defeat to President-elect Donald Trump three weeks ago.

"The fight that fueled our campaign, a fight for freedom and opportunity, that did not end on Nov. 5. A fight for the dignity of all people? That did not end on Nov. 5," Harris said. "A fight for the future, a future in which all people receive the promise of America? No. A fight that is about a fight for the ideals of our nation, the ideals that reflect the promise of America? That fight's not over."

"That fight's still in us, and it burns strong," Harris later added. "And I know this is an uncertain time. I'm clear-eyed about that. I know you're clear-eyed about it, and it feels heavy. And I just have to remind you: Don't you ever let anybody take your power from you. You have the same power that you did before Nov. 5 and you have the same purpose that you did and you have the same ability to engage and inspire. So don't ever let anybody or any circumstance take your power from you."

The grassroots call came immediately after Harris held a call with her campaign's finance committee. The finance call was attended by more than 400 donors, according to a source familiar.

They had $1.5 billion.

"We were trying to, yes, spend more resources on digital ... because we're trying to find young people, we're trying to find these lower-propensity voters that were tuned out to politics. We had some unique things that we had to do in this race that I think were really critical to do early and spent a lot of resources at an earlier stage than we would have to. We saw, up until the very end, that ... every single state was in such a margin of error. There was nothing that told us we couldn't play in one of these states."

"I think our side was completely mismatched when it came to the ecosystem of Trump and his super PACs and ours. We had a super PAC that was helpful, very important and necessary for the work that they did because they were the kind of central recipients of a lot of the funding on our side and they staked a strategy and a plan, and we clearly could see it, and we knew what it was [going] to spend, but we did not have the ability to have people come in with us early. And so every ounce of advertising, every ounce of carrying these strategic imperatives, of defining the vice president and trying to bring down Trump's numbers, all sat with us as a campaign."
