Democrats are set to approve a party platform that hasn’t been updated with Harris’ candidacy

NEW YORK (AP) — Delegates at the Democratic National Convention are set to vote on a 2024 party platform. The largely ceremonial vote Monday evening at Chicago’s convention will signal the party coalescing around a vision for the next four years, though a somewhat outdated one, as the document still wrongly names President Joe Biden as the candidate running for reelection. The Democratic National Committee said its platform committee voted to approve the platform on July 16, days before Biden bowed out of the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to lead the Democratic ticket. Harris has only outlined a few of her own specific policy positions since announcing her campaign for president.
