Democratic National Convention opens in San Francisco

The Democratic National Convention convened in San Francisco to begin selecting the party's presidential and vice-presidential nominees amid President Wilson's prolonged illness and absence from public activity.

The convention launched the Democratic nomination process that would produce the Cox–Roosevelt ticket and framed the party's response to Wilson-era policies during the 1920 campaign.
