Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett wrote a letter to the chairman of the Democratic National Committee Jaime HarrisonJaime Harrison Democrats Reveal Trump’s M-Voter Registration Campaign Allegations of Election Fraud Risks GOP in Midterm Elections Top Democrats are campaigning for California’s recall ahead of 2022 to say the city is ready to host the 2024 Democratic National Convention.
Wisconsin Public Radio reported that Milwaukee was one of 20 cities asked if they were interested in hosting the event.
“Our answer is an enthusiastic YES,” Barrett said in his letter.
Milwaukee was supposed to host the convention in 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic forced the event to be largely virtual.
“We took this complicated path up to the 2020 Democratic National Convention. With a pandemic ruptured in Milwaukee, it was ready to host a great event. And we’ll do it again, ”Barrett said in the letter.
According to Wisconsin Public Radio, Congress should bring 50,000 people to Milwaukee in 2020, along with an economic impact of $ 200 million on the city.
Barrett’s letter assured Harrison that Milwaukee was prepared with adequate facilities, hotels, and a convention center to meet the needs of the 2024 event.
“We are in a state and region that is neither red nor blue. This is a place where both major political parties want to make a statement and encourage voters to join them,” added Barrett.
