STORYLINE:
Vice presidential nominee Tim Walz and former President Bill Clinton are headlining the third evening of the Democratic National Convention.

The party hopes to build on the momentum that Kamala Harris has brought since joining the race a month ago.

While organizers focused on serious policy issues – delegates embraced more light hearted ways to celebrate the Harris-Walz campaign.

Delegates from Washington State, Ohio and Kansas all sported cowboy hats. Many admitted that pop star Beyonce was the inspiration for their hat wear choices.

In Harris’ first 2024 presidential campaign video, a familiar rhythm rings out. The clip, which touches on issues of gun violence, health care and abortion, is soundtracked by Beyoncé’s “Freedom,” a cut from her 2016 landmark album, “Lemonade.”

“We choose freedom,” Harris says in the clip, as Beyoncé’s powerful chorus kicks in: “Freedom! Freedom! I can’t move / Freedom, cut me loose! Yeah.”

It’s become a campaign song for Harris.
