In Chicago, Democrats celebrate Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign for the White House, following President Joe Biden's exit from the race. Biden, 81, will deliver a prime-time address at the Democratic National Convention, urging support for Harris, who would be the first female US president if elected. The convention, starting Monday, faces protests against Biden's policies, particularly regarding Israel's Gaza offensive. Harris, 59, will formally accept her nomination on Thursday. Meanwhile, Trump will campaign in key battleground states, with his campaign focusing on policy rather than personal attacks.
