On day one, President Joe Biden symbolically passed the torch to VP Kamala Harris. Officials say day two of the 2024 Democratic Convention will focus on what's next.
The daily theme for Tuesday is "A Bold Vision for America's Future" and will highlight the differences between the Harris-Walz campaign's vision for the future compared to the Trump-Vance campaign.
There will be a roll call to select as the Harris Democratic presidential nominee. The presentation will be historic and ceremonial since the vice president already secured the nomination when delegates cast their votes in a virtual roll call earlier this month.
Tuesday's top speakers:
- Former president Barack Obama
- Former first lady Michelle Obama
- Second gentleman Doug Emhoff
- Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont
- Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker
- Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
- Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois
- New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham
- Mesa, Ariz., Republican Mayor John Giles
