Joe Biden was officially nominated as the Democratic nominee for president on Tuesday at the virtual Democratic National Convention.

Delegates cast their votes virtually as the in-person convention was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Tuesday's roll call was merely a formality as Biden accumulated more than 50% of pledged delegates during the primaries.

Biden is now the nominee-in-waiting, and he will accept the party's nomination on Thursday from Wilmington, Delaware.
