Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on night one of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, thanking the man she has stood behind for the last three and a half years. Mirroring other Democrats Monday, Harris used her first moment on stage to thank Joe Biden for what she called his historic legacy. “Joe, thank you for your historic leadership, for your lifetime of service to our nation, and for all you’ll continue to do," she said. “We are forever grateful to you.” DAY 1 TAKEAWAYS: https://www.10tv.com/article/news/nation-world/dnc-top-moments-day-1/507-78718f7c-2498-49e3-9bc0-9e9d4896a441 Democrats are looking to the weeklong event to slingshot Harris toward a faceoff with Republican Donald Trump, whose comeback bid for the White House is viewed by Democrats as an existential threat.
