Other Democratic bigwigs are expected to address the Democratic National Convention scheduled for this month in Chicago, two people briefed on the matter said.
Joe Biden has endorsed himself for the presidency and the Democrats are confirmed to have invited former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to be speakers at the convention. Obama and the Clintons spoke at the 2020 DNC; the event almost entirely happened virtually due to the pandemic.
An informant revealed that, other speakers include; Jason Carter, the grandson of the former President of America, Jimmy Carter.
It occurs weeks after Biden withdrew from the contest after pressure from Party leaders to quit following his embarrassing debate with the now ex-president in June. He came out badly in terms of funding as many of the patrons downed tools on the president’s campaign.
The California senator who was Biden’s running mate and subsequently contested for the DP presidential ticket after Biden withdrew from the race, got the most votes of the delegate votes during the virtual voting conducted early this month. The Harris campaign last week nominated Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her vice president’s designate.
Harris – the first ever Black woman and the first Indian American to run for Vice Presidency for a major political party in the United States will formally accept the nomination to be the Vice President of the Democratic Party at the convention.
The energy that Harris brought since announcing her presidential bid last month is palpable–from specific increased requests for the main event in the United Center to other tangent activities within the city of Chicago close people involved in the preparations of the convention and the events industry revealed to NBC News.
The Harris campaign has noted that it was able to tally $310 million in the last month, and $36 million in the 24 hours immediately after she tapped Walz as her vice presidential nominee.
