The Democratic National Convention in Chicago marks a significant shift due to Biden's exit and Harris' rise. Biden will pass the baton to Harris and speak about the threat of a Trump presidency. The theme "For the People" reflects Harris' campaign motto, with an emphasis on fighting for Americans. Protests are expected, focusing on various issues like abortion rights and the Gaza war. Meanwhile, Trump and Vance engage in counterprogramming, with a focus on the economy in battleground states.
