Democrats are hopeful their pick will lead to a change in the White House. Former Vice President Joe Biden is the official Democratic presidential nominee.
The party nominated Biden in an untraditional version of the traditional roll-call of states. Delegates pledged their support to Biden virtually from every state and U.S. territory in last night’s Democratic National Convention session. Biden’s wife Jill headlined a lineup of speakers that included former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State John Kerry, and former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell.
