The first day of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) will kick off tomorrow in Chicago under the theme “For the People” as thousands of politicians, delegates, and speakers unite behind the newly formed ticket of Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
Harris joined the presidential race nearly a month ago after President Joe Biden exited the race and endorsed her on July 21.
Earlier this month, she secured enough pledged delegates to become the Democratic Party‘s nominee and is slated to officially accept the nomination at DNC. The main part of the convention will take place at the United Center, home to two professional sports teams in the city—The Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks—and has a capacity of more than 20,000.
The convention will also pay tribute to Biden’s legacy and is expected to feature a lineup of high-profile Democrats, both current and retired.
Newsweek has reached out to the DNC for confirmation …
