President Joe Biden spoke between regular chants of “thank you, Joe!” to cap off the first night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The president, who dropped out of the race weeks ago and endorsed vice president Kamala Harris to lead the ticket, delivered what may be the final campaign speech of his long political career.
Speakers also included former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, first lady Jill Biden, Sen. Raphael Warnock, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, famed basketball coach Steve Kerr, among others.
