Clinton (68) who has been secretary of state, first lady and a Senator from New York, secured her nomination at the Democratic National Convention here after a majority of the 4,764 party delegates formally backed her. If elected in the November 8 polls, Clinton would become America's first female president and commander-in-chief.

In an electrifying end to the Democratic convention’s second night, Clinton appeared by video from New York, with her image over a breaking glass ceiling, “This is really your victory. This is really your night. And if there are any little girls out there who stayed up late to watch, let me just say I may become the first woman president but one of you is next,” she said.
