In full: Kerry's concession speech
Democratic challenger John Kerry has publicly admitted defeat in the US election, giving President George W Bush a second term in office.
Here is his speech:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Earlier today, I spoke to President Bush, and I offered him and Laura our congratulations on their victory.

We had a good conversation, and we talked about the danger of division in our country and the need, the desperate need for unity, for finding the common ground, coming together.

Today, I hope that we can begin the healing.

In America it is vital that every vote count, and that every vote be counted.

But the outcome should be decided by voters, not a protracted legal process.

I would not give up this fight if there was a chance we would prevail.

But it is now clear that even when all the provisional ballots are counted - which they will be - there won't be enough outstanding votes for us to be able to win Ohio, and therefore we cannot win this election.
