Though the Democratic Party formally nominated Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as the party's nominees in the November election earlier this month, a ceremonial roll call was still held on the floor at the Democratic National Convention.
All U.S. states and territories were given the floor to formally announce how their state's delegates voted, with each state receiving a special "walk-up song" prior to the announcement of their votes.
Here's how each U.S. state and territory was introduced by the convention's DJ, DJ Cassidy:

Alaska - Feel It Still, Portugal. The Man
Arizona - Edge of Seventeen, Stevie Nicks

Here’s everything else you need to know about Tuesday's roll call.
What’s different about this year’s roll call?
Rather than being an official tally of the delegates needed to nominate the members of the presidential ticket, this year’s roll call was to be ceremonial in nature.
That’s because Democrats moved to nominate Harris and Walz prior to Aug. 7, the original deadline for Ohio officials to secure spots on the November ballot.
While the Ohio legislature passed a bill to change that deadline, Democrats sought to avoid any legal challenges to their ticket being on the ballot and opted for a virtual roll call instead, with delegates casting their ballots for Harris.
So while this year’s roll call had the traditional element of going state-by-state and declaring support for Harris and Walz, it was only be ceremonial in nature.
How did the roll call work?
The event largely proceeded with states going in alphabetical order to pledge their delegates to the Harris-Walz ticket, with a few exceptions.
All 57 delegations from the 50 states and U.S. territories participated in the voice vote.
Did any states have special spots in the order?
While traditional roll calls have a home state provide the final votes needed to secure a majority, this year’s count proceeded a bit differently. President Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware received a special slot, as did Walz’s Minnesota delegation and Harris’ California delegation.
