The Democratic National Committee has determined that a virtual roll call vote to formally nominate President Biden as the party's nominee will happen in August, according to a letter sent Wednesday by the heads of the convention rules committee.
The letter, obtained first by CBS News, and sent by the heads of the Democratic convention rules committee, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Leah Daughtry, says they have confirmed with the DNC and the Democratic National Convention that "no voting will begin before August 1."
"None of this will be rushed. Unlike our nation's other major political party, our rules are set in public meetings, anchored in the Party's charter and its traditions. That will continue in the 2024 cycle, as it must with so much at stake," they write.
