00:00Our correspondent Wasim Kornei was following Harris's speech from Los Angeles.

00:04He tells us how voters there have been reacting.

00:08This crowd here is fired up at one of the several watch parties held tonight in Los

00:12Angeles.

00:13Watching the final night of the Democratic National Convention, we've seen posters, we've

00:16seen signs, t-shirts with the L.A. and Kamala standing out because of course this is Kamala

00:22Harris's home state of California.

00:24The excitement sky high as she accepts the nomination for President of the United States.

00:30I consider myself a good gentleman of character, right?

00:37And listening to her speak, like she sounds legit wanting to bring this country out of

00:45this despair.

00:46Like, it's very authentic, I really feel that she really means everything she says.

00:52Tonight was an incredible evening where we really got to see what she's made of as a

00:56leader.

00:57And so the fact that people are now not voting in fear, but voting in hope, I would even

01:02say they're voting in joy after this week, is really incredible.

01:06Empowered, invigorated, hopeful, haven't been hopeful in a very long time with the Democratic

01:12Party.

01:13So I'm just very confident that they can win.

01:16Well California will of course be a given in the Harris column come November 5th, but

01:20there will be a lot of hard work to do to convince the independent voters in a number

01:23of swing states, including the neighboring states of Arizona and Nevada.
