Kamala Harris closed the DNC with a speech that she hopes will sway voters to the Democrats.

The day began with speculation over whether she might be joined on stage by Taylor Swift or Beyonc茅.

In the end, Harris took to the stage alone and focused on her upbringing and a pitch to America鈥檚 middle class.

The team assemble on the final night of the convention to analyse whether she did enough to win over the undecided.
