Despite the cold and the long wait, the crowd of tens of thousands went wild for Kamala Harris as she took the stage in Philadelphia.

The Democratic presidential candidate delivers one of her final appeals to voters.

“Our campaign tapped into the ambitions, aspirations and dreams of the American people,” she told supporters.

“It’s time for a new generation of leaders in America.”

However, she says “the race isn’t over yet” and it could be one of the “closest races in history.”

“You will decide the outcome of this election in Pennsylvania,” she adds.

“Make no mistake, we will win.”

Chants of “we will win” erupt from the crowd, but some people choose to leave the audience instead.

“America is ready for a new beginning, ready for a new path forward,” Ms. Harris said.

“I will spend each day on your behalf working on my to-do lists.”

She outlines a series of policies including tax cuts for working families, lowering health care costs, lowering the cost of living and guaranteeing the right to abortion.

His famous campaign slogan “We’re not going back” echoes around Eakins Oval.

“I’m not looking to score political points, I’m looking to progress,” she says.

“I pledge to always put country above the road and myself and to be a president for all Americans.”

She ends her speech by telling the crowd that her campaign must end with optimism and joy.

“We can tackle any challenge we face when we do it together,” she says.

“Our grassroots movement reflects a simple truth, that we are all in this together.”

The crowd erupts in applause as Ms. Harris’ signature song, Freedom, by Beyoncé plays.
