At a virtual event this week that was termed an "unconventional
convention” due to the pandemic, the Democratic Party nominated
former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris for the 2020
Democratic ticket. In a historic speech Wednesday night, Sen.
Harris became the first Black woman to accept the nomination for
vice president of the United States with a major party. Former
President Barack Obama also made history Wednesday when he
delivered a forceful condemnation of his successor, President
Trump. We’ll recap this year’s Democratic National Convention,
including Gov. Newsom’s withdrawal from Thursday’s program because
of California’s wildfire emergency. And we want to hear from you:
have you been tuning in to the convention? What moments stand out
to you most?
