The Democratic National Convention advances and tonight reaches its third day of virtual speeches (due to the coronavirus pandemic).

Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton: What Happens on Day 3 of the Democratic National Convention?

The third day of the Democratic National Convention will be the night of California Senator Kamala Harris, who will be formally nominated as the vice presidential candidate. Joe Biden was nominated as the candidate for president on Tuesday.

This is a historic day, as Harris is the first black woman from a large party to be nominated for the second-highest office in the United States Government. Her nomination will come after former President Barack Obama, the first black man to enter the White House, gave her message of support for Biden.

This Wednesday's event revolves around the motto "A more perfect union." The speeches and interventions will be from  9:00 pm to 11:00 pm and you can follow them live on our website, app and social networks.  It will be hosted by actress Kerry Washington, and singers Billie Eilish and Jennifer Hudson will perform on the show.

These are the most prominent figures speaking this Wednesday:

✔️ Kamala Harris : The 55-year-old former California Attorney General will have the opportunity to re-present herself in a different light, now before a larger audience, after her presidential hopeful campaign came to an end in 2019. "Right now, we have a president who turns our tragedies into political weapons," will be part of his message, according to an advance of his speech.

✔️ Hillary Clinton : The former first lady participated in the last Democratic Convention of 2016, when she accepted the nomination as a candidate for the presidency to face Donald Trump in the elections in which she lost. Since her defeat, she has given multiple interviews and written a book. Clinton is still the target of attack by the Trump campaign. "Vote as if our lives and our livelihoods were at stake, because they are," he warned in his speech.

✔️ Elizabeth Warren : Like Harris, Warren also made efforts to win the White House, and ended up abandoning the race due to lack of support. She was one of the women Biden considered for vice president and is very interested in being part of the next Administration, if the Democrats win.  

✔️ Barack Obama : In addition to the Kamala Harris moment, the former president's speech is one of the most anticipated moments. The intervention of his wife Michelle Obama was the highlight of the opening night of the convention. Obama will use his screen time to highlight the qualities and strengths of Biden, a man whom he elected as vice president in 2008. But also to confront Trump, as this preview of his speech shows: “(Trump) has not shown interest in doing the job; no interest in finding common ground; no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself and his friends. "

✔️ Nancy Pelosi : The Speaker of the House of Representatives, a staunch critic of Trump, will intervene to deliver this message: “As Speaker (of the House of Representatives), I have seen first-hand Donald Trump's lack of respect for the facts , for working families and for women in particular, the lack of respect written in their policies towards our health and our rights, not just their behavior. But we know what he doesn't know: that when women succeed, America succeeds. "
