The word “competition” comes up 18 times in the party’s 2024 platform, compared to nine in the 2020 version.

The platform is an indication of where Democrats stand on key issues, which will serve as an important signal to Harris about where the party base is.

Democrats are committed to holding tech companies accountable, a Democratic strategist says.

“Our platform reflects our values, and after years of tech companies manipulating our economy, endangering people seeking reproductive care, and making the climate crisis worse, it’s clear that Democrats are now committed to hold them accountable,” he says.
