The Democratic Party officially approved Joe Biden as his candidate for the president of the United States.
This decision was made on Tuesday at the national congress of the party in Miluoi. Due to the coronavirus epidemic, the congress under the motto "Unit America" was held online. Voting itself also took place in video format. During the virtual roll call, party delegations from the states and territories of the United States announced the results of their primaries. In total, Joe Biden received more than 3.5 thousand votes of party delegates.
Joe Biden will be an opponent of the current president Donald Trump in the presidential election on November 3. Trump, according to polls, now has slightly less support than Biden. This is the third attempt of the 77-year-old Biden to become the president of the United States.
A week before the congress, Joe Biden chose a candidate for vice presidents of the United States-he became a senator from California Kamal Harris.
