New York Gov. Hochul to speak at Democratic National Convention

CHICAGO (WCAX) – New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is among those set to take the stage at the Democratic National Convention on Monday.

The governor posted on social media that she was looking forward to her speech on Monday.

Hochul will join other Democratic leaders talking at the DNC, including President Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton who posted on social media that she is also speaking on Monday.

The Democratic National Convention kicks off Monday in Chicago. It comes just four weeks after President Joe Biden shuttered his campaign and made way for Vice President Kamala Harris to ascend to the top of the Democrats’ ticket. The four-day gathering of thousands of activists and party leaders from across the nation is designed to celebrate and strengthen Harris as President Joe Biden’s replacement and boost her campaign to defeat Republican Donald Trump in November.
