Delegates will gather on the convention floor on Tuesday to cast their symbolic votes.

The ceremonial vote will follow the general format of past in-person convention roll calls, with some stylistic flourishes.

It’s been nearly two weeks since Vice President Kamala Harris officially won the Democratic presidential nomination in an online vote.

The vice presidential nominees of both parties are usually selected by acclamation, or a voice vote by the entire convention delegation, rather than through a separate roll call vote.

The same procedure was used to nominate Harris as the vice presidential nominee at the 2020 convention.

Harris and Walz will symbolically accept the nominations in speeches before the full convention.
