当地时间8月22日，美国副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯在芝加哥出席民主党全国代表大会，并正式接受2024年美国总统选举民主党总统候选人提名。

20日，在民主党全国代表大会举行期间，哈里斯通过视频表示接受了民主党总统候选人提名。她表示自己非常荣幸获得民主党的总统候选人提名，并称将与民主党的同事“共同规划新的前进道路”。

21日晚，明尼苏达州州长、民主党人蒂姆·沃尔兹在民主党全国代表大会上正式接受提名，成为民主党副总统候选人。

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris formally accepted the Democratic Party's nomination of her as its presidential candidate at the Democratic National Convention (DNC), held at the United Center in Chicago, on Thursday. 

"I accept your nomination to be president of the United States of America," said Harris, the first woman of color to lead a major party ticket in the country, in a speech on the fourth and the final day of the DNC.

"With this election, our nation has a precious, fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness, cynicism and divisive battles of the past, a chance to chart a new way forward. Not as members of any one party or faction, but as Americans," she said.

Harris reflected on her upbringing as well as her experience working as a prosecutor in the Bay Area and as California's attorney general.

She said that supporting the middle class will be a defining goal of her presidency. She also elaborated on abortion rights, immigration policy and foreign policy, among other topics.

The Democratic presidential nominee also blasted former President Donald Trump's actions and policies, describing the consequences of putting Trump back in the White House as "extremely serious."

In a series of posts on Truth Social, Trump, the Republican presidential nominee lashed out at Harris' speech, saying that she stands for "incompetence" and "weakness."

Earlier on Thursday, thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters marched near the DNC venue to express their dissatisfaction with the Biden administration's Israel policy.

In her acceptance speech, Harris addressed the Israel-Palestine conflict. "President Biden and I are working to end this war such that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering in Gaza ends, and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination," said the Democratic nominee.

On August 6, the DNC announced that Harris had been officially certified as the party's presidential nominee following a five-day online balloting process.

If victorious on November 5, Harris will make history as the first female U.S. president.
