At night, TV audiences see delegates participating in a big pep rally for the main speakers, but during the day it's another story.
Monday saw members of the Black Caucus, Hispanic Caucus, AAPI Caucus, Native American Caucus and Ethnic Caucus meeting in the morning. At midday, LGBTQ+ Caucus, Small Business Caucus and Labor Council all held meetings, but there were also panels on topics like "Digital Organizing, Misinformation, and Disinformation," "Tribal Organizing 101," and "Understanding and Overcoming the Rural Urban Divide to Win in 2024.
The party unveiled a full, 92-page draft platform late Sunday night. It was written before President Joe Biden left the 2024 race, and was voted upon by the DNC's rules committee in July.
