After months of passive, unsure feelings about the future of the country, Democrats filled the room with excitement, emotion, and positive energy last night as they saluted presidential nominee Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention.

There’s a lot of energy in this room, just like there is across the country.
” In a political moment that will be hard for any millennial ever to forget, Clinton lost the presidential race in 2016 to Republican Donald Trump , robbing Democrats—including young voters, members of the LGBTQ community, and liberal women—of the hope of having the United States’ first female president. The defeat was tough on the country and, of course, on Clinton, who retired from electoral politics following her loss—which is why her DNC speech hit listeners that much harder.
