CHICAGO — The DNC is underway from Monday-Thursday in Chicago. WFAA will be covering the event daily, and here's how you can watch and follow along.

The third day of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago featured appearances from Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz, former President Bill Clinton, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and more. 

Notable Texans on the third night included Congresswoman Veronica Escobar, Cecile Richards, formerly of Planned Parenthood, Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar, Texas abortion rights activist Olivia Julianna, and a performance from Arlington's Maren Morris.

The DNC continues Wednesday for the third day at United Center. Here's our rundown from the first, second and third days of the convention. 

Before the DNC officially began, several thousand self-described leftists began protesting outside the convention Sunday, calling on Democrats to end financial aid to Israel and better protect civilians in Gaza, with protests expected to continue this week for the duration of the convention. 

WFAA senior political reporter Jason Whitely is in Chicago. We'll be posting updates from the convention here throughout the day. We'll also be livestreaming on our website and WFAA+.
