CHICAGO. IM KALYN NORWOOD KAYLA. THANK YOU. AND THIS IS A LIVE LOOK. NOW INSIDE THE UNITED CENTER IN CHICAGO, A SOUTH CAROLINA DELEGATE FROM THE UPSTATE IS MAKING HISTORY AS ONE OF THE YOUNGEST AT THE DNC AT JUST 17 YEARS OLD. ANIKA CRAWFORD OF GREENVILLE IS ATTENDING HER FIRST CONVENTION. SHE SAYS THAT BEING YOUNG CAN COME WITH ITS STRUGGLES, BUT SHE CAN TELL HER VOICE MATTERS, AND THATS WHY SHE TAKES THE TIME TO MAKE SURE HER FRIENDS AND OTHER GEN Z VOTERS ARE REGISTERED AND READY FOR THIS ELECTION. THE STUFF THAT WE WANT TO SEE CHANGED, THE STUFF THAT WE WANT TO SEE HAPPEN IN OUR GOVERNMENT, IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THATS ONLY POSSIBLE IF WE GET OUT AND VOTE, AND IF WE GET OUT AND ADVOCATE FOR THE ISSUES THAT WE BELIEVE IN. AND IVE SEEN THAT FIRSTHAND, NOT ONLY HERE IN CHICAGO, BUT BACK IN GREENVILLE IN THE WORK THAT IVE BEEN DOING OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. AND SO I LOOK FORWARD TO HOPEFULLY GETTING OUT THE VOTE WITH A LOT OF MY FRIENDS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE MY AGE THIS YEAR, AND SEEING THE RESULTS THAT WE NEED. OKAY, AWESOME. BACK TO SOUTH CAROLINA A LITTLE BIT. WHAT HAS THAT BEEN LIKE? YOU KNOW, TO BE A PART OF THE CEREMONIAL ROLL CALL, TO BE A PART OF EVERYTHING, YOU KNOW, GOING ON WITH SOUTH CAROLINA SPECIFICALLY? OH, SOUTH CAROLINA DELEGATION IS A BLAST HERE AT THE DNC. I MIGHT BE BIASED, BUT I WILL SAY WE ARE THE BEST DELEGATION HERE. SO IT HAS BEEN A REALLY, REALLY GREAT TIME. AND I LOOK UP TO, LIKE I SAID, SO MANY OF THE FOLKS WHO ARE IN OUR DELEGATION WHO HAVE BEEN LEADING THE WAY ON A LOT OF THE ISSUES THAT THAT I BELIEVE IN HERE IN OUR HOME STATE. AND SO ITS AN HONOR. ITS A PRIVILEGE. WERE ALSO SUPER PROUD OF OUR DNC CHAIRMAN, JAIME HARRISON, WHO IS FROM SOUTH CAROLINA. SO TO STAND BY HIS SIDE AT THE ROLL CALL LAST NIGHT WAS WAS A GREAT TIME. AND WERE REALLY PROUD TO BE REPRESENTING SOUTH CAROLINA REALLY DOES PLAY A BIG PART. SO ANIKA HAS A HISTORY OF PLAYING A PART IN POLITICS. SHE IS A DNC MEMBER, THE NATIONAL CHAIR OF HIGH SCHOOL DEMOCRATS OF AMERICA AND SOUTH CAROLINAS YOUTH GOVERNOR FOR YMCA, YMCA YOUTH AND GOVERNMENT. WE HAVE A SPECIAL COVERAGE FROM DAY THREE OF THE DNC, INCLUDING SPEECHES FROM VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE TIM WALZ AND FORMER PRESIDENT BI
