Washington — Ohio Sen. JD Vance accepted the GOP's nomination for vice president on Wednesday, closing out the third day of the Republican National Convention with a speech that sought to remind the party that it is a "big tent" with the shared goal of a thriving nation for generations to come.
Vance's speech marked his first formal appearance as Trump's running mate, and provided a platform to introduce himself to the nation as the 2024 race for the White House heads into the final months. The former president watched Vance's speech from his box in the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
"Tonight, Mr. Chairman, I stand here humbled and I am overwhelmed with gratitude to say I officially accept your nomination to be vice president of the United States of America," he said.
