In the most emotional moment of her speech, Clinton addressed the millions of girls and young women who voted for her in the election.

"And to all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you
are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity
in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams," she
proclaimed. "We still have not shattered that highest and hardest
glass ceiling -- but some day, someone will."

Clinton had a slew of celebrities backing her run for office, and following her speech, a few tweeted out their admiration for her.

CBS Newsconfirmed
that that Clinton called Trump at 2:30 a.m. to concede, but gave no
speech at the Javits Center on Tuesday night. Instead, campaign chairman
John Podesta told supporters that Clinton would not be speaking and
sent everyone home.
