Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear to speak at DNC Monday night. Here's how to watch
Gov. Andy Beshear will speak at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago Monday night, according to a social media post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
In the post, Beshear said his speech at the United Center will be about why Vice President Kamala Harris should be elected as America's next president. He is set to speak sometime during primetime between 8-11 p.m.
Beshear has previously campaigned for Harris, including in Iowa and Georgia last month. He was also a contender and vetted as Harris' running mate, but Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her vice presidential candidate.

The DNC is scheduled to run from Aug. 19-22, and other speakers throughout the week will include former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton.
