Vice President Kamala Harris officially accepted the Democratic presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, making history as the first woman of color to do so. Her speech focused on national unity, promising to restore reproductive freedoms, offer tax cuts to the middle class, and strengthen the border. Harris also strongly criticized former President Donald Trump, warning of the serious consequences of his potential return to the White House, citing the January 6 Capitol riot. The convention served as a tribute to Joe Biden's legacy but largely focused on Harris' future candidacy. The event concluded with an energetic celebration, including the release of 100,000 balloons, highlighting the party's enthusiasm for Harris' historic run.
