LIVE BLOG: Hillary Clinton Accepts Democratic Nomination

update

Hillary Clinton accepted the Democratic Party's nomination for president Thursday night with a message stressing the need to unite in order to confront the nation's challenges. "It truly is up to us," she said.

Congressman Joyce Beatty of Ohio says Donald Trump is looking to "wind back the clock" on the progress made in the past eight years.

Continuing the night's theme of "Stronger Together," Beatty says, "This election to me is about choosing between two fundamentally different visions of America, and I believe the choice is crystal clear.

"America needs a commander in chief, not a divider in chief," she says.

The DNC house band is playing. Many in the crowd dancing in the aisles.

Lots of politically themed hats and Clinton/Kaine signs are in the arena tonight.
