Vice President Kamala Harris formally accepted her party's presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. In her speech, the vice president emphasized the need for Americans to move beyond political divisions and unite for a better future. Harris, the first Black woman and person of South Asian descent to receive a major party nomination, highlighted her personal and professional background, particularly her experience as a prosecutor. She criticized former President Donald Trump, warning against his return to power, and directly appealed to Republicans disillusioned with Trump to support her. Harris also addressed key issues such as national security, U.S. alliances, and abortion rights.
