The Democratic Party has finally ratified Hillary Clinton as its official candidate in the upcoming November presidential election.
Sanders’ gesture symbolically sealed peace between the leaders of the two feuding sectors within the Democratic Party.
At 6.39pm local Philadelphia time, Clinton received the votes of the majority of the Democratic delegates and became the presidential nominee who will face Republican candidate Donald Trump on November 8.
Republicans nominated Trump last week in Cleveland, Ohio, but they were just as divided on the last day of the convention as they were on the first.
The goal of these conventions is to close the primary season in the 50 states – this year it lasted more than five months – and open the final phase of the presidential campaign.
