Monday: For the People
“ | While Donald Trump puts himself first, Democrats are fighting for the American people. President Biden has exemplified this through his leadership and legacy as a historic president who put the American people’s interest above his own. The accomplishments and results President Biden delivered for people, with Vice President Harris by his side, will be on full display during the convention, as will Kamala Harris’s commitment to fighting on behalf of everyday Americans. At its core, the Harris-Walz ticket is a ticket for the people.[14] | ” |
Tuesday: A Bold Vision for America’s Future
“ | This race isn’t just a choice between two candidates. It’s a choice between two very different visions of America. While Donald Trump believes our best days are behind us, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz know the best days lie ahead. Standing in stark contrast to the Trump-Vance Project 2025 agenda designed to take us backwards, the Harris-Walz ticket presents a brighter vision where everyone will have a chance not just to get by, but to get ahead.[14] | ” |
Wednesday: A Fight for Our Freedoms
“ | Vice President Harris has spent her entire career fighting for Americans’ freedoms. In Governor Tim Walz, Vice President Harris chose as her running mate a champion for America’s working families and a staunch defender of those same fundamental freedoms. Donald Trump spent his four years in office fighting to strip our rights away, and he’s once again running on an extreme agenda to go even farther in turning back the clock on all the freedoms we hold dear.[14] | ” |
Thursday: For Our Future
“ | America can’t afford to put Donald Trump back in the White House — because a second Trump term would be even more dangerous and more extreme than the first one. But the choice we face in November isn’t just about us versus Donald Trump. This election is a fight for the future. Vice President Harris and Governor Walz will lead America into a brighter, more hopeful era.[14] | ” |
Democratic virtual roll call nomination
- See also: Withdrawal of Joe Biden from the 2024 presidential election and Democratic convention nomination, 2024
Vice President Kamala Harris (D) won the Democratic presidential nomination on August 2, 2024, during a virtual roll call vote of Democratic convention delegates. Harris received 4,563 delegate votes, which amounted to 99% of the delegates.[3][15] Almost all of the delegates were unbound following President Joe Biden's (D) withdrawal from the race.[16][17][18]
Harris was the only qualified candidate. In order to qualify for the virtual roll call, a candidate had to submit the signatures of at least 300 delegates by 6:00 p.m. on July 30, 2024.[16][17] Harris' campaign submitted signatures from 3,923 delegates. Since Harris submitted signatures from a majority of delegates, superdelegates were allowed to participate in the first round of voting at the virtual roll call.
An Associated Press survey of Democratic delegates estimated Vice President Kamala Harris (D) had reached the majority delegate threshold necessary to become the Democratic presidential nominee on July 22, 2024.[19][20]
President Joe Biden (D), the former presumptive Democratic nominee, withdrew from the presidential race on July 21, 2024. He became the presumptive nominee on March 12, 2024, after winning an estimated majority of delegates in the presidential primaries.

Biden's, Phillips', and Palmer's delegates were all unbound after each candidate withdrew from the presidential race.[23]
In 2020, Biden won the Democratic nomination with 3,558 delegate votes, followed by Bernie Sanders with 1,151, and five abstentions. In 2016, Hillary Clinton won the Democratic nomination with 2,842 delegate votes, followed by Sanders with 1,865, and 56 unknown or abstention votes.

Host city
On April 11, 2023, Biden released a statement selecting Chicago, Illinois, as the host for the 2024 Democratic National Convention.[24][1]
On May 27, 2022, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that the cities of Atlanta, Georgia, Houston, Texas, and New York, New York had also submitted bids to host the convention.[25] On January 25, 2023, Reuters reported that the DNC said Houston would not host the convention.[26]
2024 Democratic Party Platform
The Democratic National Committee's Platform Committee released the final version of the party's 2024 platform on August 18, 2024. Delegates voted to approve the platform on August 19, 2024.[27]
State laws and party rules on replacing a presidential nominee
Replacing a presumptive nominee before the national convention
The Democratic and Republican parties do not formally nominate candidates until delegates vote at the party's national convention. The Democratic National Convention took place from August 19-22, 2024, and the Republican National Convention took place from July 15-18, 2024.
A party's presumptive nominee, meaning the candidate who receives an estimated majority of delegates after state nominating events, could be replaced at the convention. Delegates could elect a candidate who they were not initially bound to at the time of their state's election. Both state law and party rules govern how a delegate must vote at the national convention, including whether a delegate remains bound to a withdrawn candidate and for how many rounds a delegate remains bound to a candidate.[28]
Both parties also have delegates who are not bound to a particular candidate at the convention. The Republican Party has a total of 104 unbound delegates, and the Democratic Party has a total of 739 unbound delegates. Democratic unbound delegates can only vote if a convention proceeds past the first round of voting.
Replacing a nominee between the national convention and the election
Under Article 2 of The Bylaws of the Democratic Party, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has the responsibility to fill vacancies in presidential and vice presidential nominations between national conventions.[29]
In the event of a vacancy on the national ticket, the chairperson would call a special meeting. Under Article 2 § 8(d), questions before the DNC, with some exceptions otherwise outlined in the charter and bylaws, are determined by a majority vote of the DNC members who are present and voting by proxy. The bylaws also state that voting to fill a vacancy on the national ticket must proceed in accordance with procedural rules adopted by the Rules and Bylaws Committee and approved by the DNC.[29]
It is important to note, however, that states require political parties to submit names of presidential and vice presidential nominees and presidential electors before election day in order to certify them for the general election ballot. Deadlines vary by state and depend on the election calendar, including early voting, voting by mail, and absentee voting considerations.
Call of the 2024 Democratic National Convention
History
The first Democratic national convention was held in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1832 and followed conventions which had been held by the Anti-Masonic and National Republican parties the previous year.[30] Before conventions were introduced, presidential nominees were selected at private caucuses open only to members of Congress.[31] Click here for a breakdown of Democratic national conventions through 2008.

2020 convention
- See also: Democratic National Convention, 2020
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) held its presidential nominating convention the week of August 17, 2020, across four stages in New York City, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, and Wilmington.[33][34]
The convention was originally scheduled to take place July 13-16, 2020, in Milwaukee.[35] Organizers postponed the event in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
Most of the convention's events took place remotely. The DNC announced in June 2020 that delegates should not plan to travel to Milwaukee to attend the convention.[36] Instead, votes on reports from the Rules, Platform, and Credentials committees took place remotely from August 3-15, 2020.[37]
The Democratic National Convention Committee announced on August 5, 2020, that former Vice President Joe Biden (D) and other speakers would not travel to Milwaukee.[38] Biden was formally nominated at the convention on August 18, 2020.[39]
Biden announced U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris (D) as his running mate on August 11, 2020.[40] Harris was the first Black woman to appear on a major party's ticket in the United States.[41]
2016 convention
- See also: Democratic National Convention, 2016
The 2016 Democratic National Convention was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from July 25-28, 2016. At the convention, delegates selected former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D) as the party's presidential nominee and Sen. Tim Kaine (D) as the vice presidential nominee. Featured speakers included runner-up candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I), Vice President Joe Biden (D), and President Barack Obama (D).
Noteworthy events
Biden withdraws from presidential race (2024)
On July 21, 2024, President Joe Biden (D) announced on social media platform X that he was ending his campaign for re-election.[42] In a statement, Biden said:
“ |
It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.[14] |
” |
In a separate post on X, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris (D) to replace him at the top of the ticket: "Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats—it's time to come together and beat Trump. Let's do this."[43]
Democratic National Committee changes presidential certification date in response to Ohio filing deadline
On May 28, 2024, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) said it planned to hold a virtual delegate roll call to certify its presidential and vice presidential nominees ahead of the in-person Democratic National Convention, which took place from August 19-22, 2024, in Chicago, Illinois, and ahead of Ohio's presidential ballot certification deadline on August 7. On July 24, 2024, the DNC Rules Committee voted to hold a virtual roll call vote between August 1 and August 7.[16][17] On July 31, the DNC said the vote would take place from August 1 to August 5.[44]
On June 2, 2024, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) signed a bill into law moving the state's filing deadline to September 1, 2024.[45] On June 4, the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee passed a rule allowing the Democratic convention committee to schedule a virtual roll call vote ahead of the convention. The committee said it was doing so due to uncertainty around whether the bill passed in Ohio would take effect in time.[46][47] The Ohio Secretary of State issued an advisory on June 3 saying the bill would take effect ahead of the new September 1 deadline.[48]
In April 2024, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose's (R) office sent a letter to the Ohio Democratic Party saying that since the Ohio filing deadline took place before the convention, "the Democratic National Committee must either move up its nominating convention or the Ohio General Assembly must act by May 9, 2024 (90 days prior to a new law's effective date) to create an exception to this statutory requirement."[49][50]
The 2024 Democratic National Convention date also came into conflict with ballot access deadlines in Alabama and Washington. The Alabama State Legislature passed a law changing the deadline, and Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs (D) said he would provisionally approve the Democratic nominee's ballot access ahead of the convention.[50]
