We cross to Chicago to the Democratic National Convention, where Kamala Harris is about to cement her place as Donald Trump's opponent for November's election.
It's been a tumultuous few months for the Democrats, with discontent over Joe Biden's performance reaching fever pitch in late July when he announced he would not stand in November.
Support then quickly coalesced around Kamala Harris - who will make her acceptance speech around midday on Friday NZ time.
Susana Mendoza is a former Illinois state representative, the first Hispanic official elected to Illinois state office, and an official Democrat delegate.
She speaks to Kathryn from the Convention.
Kathryn also spoke to Republican lawmaker Julie Emerson from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee last month.
