Democrats officially nominated former Vice President Joe Biden to be their presidential nominee at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday night.

Biden’s nomination was expected and there was no drama as the roll call of votes unfolded.

Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) and Rep. Lissa Blunt Rochester (D-DE) both game speeches on behalf of Biden, as did Jacquelyn Brittany, a New York Times security guard, according to The Hill.

Labor leader Bob King and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) gave speeches on behalf of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who finished second to Biden in the Democratic primary.

In normal times, the roll call vote to officially nominate Biden would have taken place on the floor of the convention in Milwaukee, but on Tuesday night, Democrats took the roll call vote virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Biden tweeted after the nomination was approved, “It is the honor of my life to accept the Democratic Party's nomination for President of the United States of America.”

Biden’s nomination comes after fierce debate among Democrats during the primaries over who would be most electable in a matchup against Trump.

The former Vice President seized control of the primaries after Black voters rallied behind him, delivering him resounding victories in the South Carolina primary in late February and in the Super Tuesday primaries in early March.

Biden had been the presumptive Democratic nominee since Sanders dropped out of the presidential race in April and endorsed Biden.

Since Sanders dropped out of the race, Biden has received the backing of several high-ranking Democrats, including former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Last week, Biden named Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate, fulfilling a commitment the former Vice President made in March to name a woman as running mate.
