LIVE BLOG: Republican National Convention, Day 3

update

'Make America First Again' was the theme for day 3 of the Republican National Convention, as vice presidential nominee, Indiana Governor Mike Pence, took center stage after other key figures, including: former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, and former Trump rivals Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Florida Senator Marco Rubio addressed the convention.

He says Obama wants to close Guantanamo and open our borders. The crowd boos.

Cruz says Obama exports jobs and imports terrorists. The crowd boos.

Enough is enough, Cruz says, to claps and cheers from the crowd.

Cruz says we deserve an immigration policy that puts America first and, yes, builds a wall. Huge cheers from the crowd.

Cruz also brings his speech around to the Apollo 11 anniversary, then segues into how the Republican Party was founded to defeat slavery. Also mentions Republican President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. The party passed civil rights. They all refer to freedoms that his party brought about, Cruz sauys. And he brings it full circle to the Texas officer's family, who forgave the man who killed their husband and father.

He then tells people they need to vote in November. He tells people to get out and vote their conscience up and down the ticket who they believe will be faithful to the Constitution. The crowd is now roaring and chanting "We want Trump!"
