Minnesota Governor Tim Walz accepted the Democratic Party's 2024 vice presidential nomination, delivering a speech highlighting his Midwestern roots and political accomplishments. Former President Bill Clinton and other top Democratic leaders, including Nancy Pelosi and Hakeem Jeffries, voiced strong support for presidential nominee Kamala Harris, emphasizing her leadership qualities and vision for the country. The convention also featured efforts to appeal to disillusioned Republican voters by including Republican speakers who endorsed Harris. Despite tensions, Pelosi praised Biden's presidency, acknowledging her role in urging him to step aside for the good of the party. Biden, in turn, lauded Harris as a capable and integral leader.
