Day 4 of the Democratic National Convention is set to be a significant night, especially for Vice President Kamala Harris as she formally accepts the presidential nomination. Here’s the lineup for the evening.
Harris delivered her address following her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who officially accepted the party’s vice presidential nomination on the convention’s third night. In his keynote speech, Walz presented himself to the nation, recounting his tenure in the National Guard, his experience as a public school teacher and coach, and his twelve years serving in Congress, emphasizing the importance of being a good neighbor.
Delegates also heard from former President Bill Clinton and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, along with a slew of Democrats in Congress and other elected officials from across the country. And a handful of celebrities — including Oprah Winfrey — made an appearance.
The third night of the convention also featured testimonials from Americans on a range of issues, from abortion to LGBTQ rights, as they advocated for freedoms that they argued a Harris-Walz administration would protect.
What’s on the agenda?
Each day of the convention features a theme related to the tagline, “For the People, For Our Future.” Thursday’s theme is centered on the “For Our Future” element, where the party is set to highlight how the Harris-Walz plans to lead the nation forward.
Who’s speaking?
Although an official schedule has yet to be released, more prominent Democrats are expected to speak on the final day of the convention before Harris delivers her remarks to cap Day 4 — and the convention more broadly.
