The Democratic National Convention (DNC) is a series of presidential nominating conventions held every four years since 1856 by the Democratic Party in the United States. The convention is ran by the Democratic National Committee. The goal of the convention is to officially nominate and confirm a candidate for president and vice president and approve a party platform.
Delegates from all fifty U.S. states and from American territories, including Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, attend the convention and cast their votes.
