What happens at the DNC?

Delegates from across the nation and U.S. territories will gather to officially nominate the Democratic presidential and vice-presidential candidates for the 2024 election. Delegates will cast their votes based on the results of the primary elections in their respective states and territories.

The convention will feature primetime speeches and official proceedings in the evening at the United Center.

Who is the nominee for the 2024 DNC?

Despite calls for stepping down, President Biden said he’s in the race "till the end."

While delegates typically support the candidate who won their party's primary, they are only obligated to support that candidate in "good conscience" and could vote for another candidate even with Biden still in the race.
