A month following the 2024 Republican National Convention, it’s (Democratic) party time.

The 2024 Democratic National Convention kicks off today in Chicago, and runs through Thursday, Aug. 22. President Joe Biden, who was originally slated to helm the Democratic ticket, will be issuing his support for Vice President Kamala Harris, who is running for president alongside vice-presidential candidate and Minnesota governor Tim Walz.

Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential election on July 21, backing Harris as his replacement in an announcement on X.

Since then, Harris has embarked on the campaign trail, scoring a cameo on the Season 9 finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars to urge people to get out and vote.
