Here are the speakers at the Democratic National Convention tonight
- Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris and former President Barack Obama headline the speakers at the 2020 Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night.
- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are also in the night's speaking lineup.
- Democrats will make their case for their presidential nominee Joe Biden for a third night during a convention carried out remotely due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Sen. Kamala Harris will accept the Democratic Party's vice presidential nomination, and former President Barack Obama will make the case for his own ex-running mate during the third night of the Democratic National Convention.
Joe Biden became the party's official presidential nominee on Tuesday night. Harris, a California Democrat, is expected to vouch for the ticket's readiness for office and criticize President Donald Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic. Obama, meanwhile, will be the third former president to advocate for Biden during the convention.
