Former DNC Chair Says Milwaukee Unlikely To Host Convention

A former chairman of the Democratic National Committee is suggesting the party consider creative alternatives to holding its national convention in Milwaukee.  Former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe says he believes it’s “very unlikely” there will be a convention in Wisconsin next August.  McAuliffe says that’s just an opinion, but he cites a difficult environment for Democrats as they try to raise the needed money to hold the event.  Presumptive Democratic candidate Joe Biden has already suggested the 2020 convention might need to be done virtually because of the coronavirus pandemic.
