During a convention rules committee meeting on Friday, Democratic officials discussed the logistics of a virtual roll call to renominate President Joe Biden. While few details were shared, it was made clear that the voting process would not commence before August 1.
Party leaders did not specify a set date for the virtual roll call but indicated that the decision would be made by party leadership at a later time. Delegates will be given a 24-hour notice before the voting begins, and the voting itself will be conducted through digital ballots sent via email to the delegates. This method mirrors the approach taken during the virtual voting process at the 2020 convention.
Although the rules committee did not formally approve the plan during Friday's meeting, they are scheduled to reconvene next week to further deliberate on the matter. The proposed plan aims to ensure a smooth and efficient virtual roll call process for the renomination of President Biden.
