What’s on tap tonightWhen it comes to simulating the interactive vibe of a normal convention, the Democrats have a tall task tonight. That’s because this evening features the roll call vote — the headiest and most photogenic moment of any convention, where delegates officially cast their votes to select their party’s nominee. Both Mr. Biden and his runner-up, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, will be nominated. Mr. Sanders is expected to receive over 1,000 delegates based on the results of the primaries. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York will give a nominating speech for Mr. Sanders.
