Throughout the four nights of the Democratic National Convention, democratic leaders, pop-culture icons and ‘everyday Americans’ took the stage to convince America why they should vote for Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. On Monday, President Joe Biden passed the torch. Tuesday, Aug. 21, had a music-filled roll call of delegates and speeches from the Obamas. On Wednesday, Aug. 21, America heard from the Vice Presidential Candidate, Walz. And finally, on Thursday, Aug. 22, Kamala Harris took the stage to accept the Democratic nomination for President to a sold-out United Center.
