Democratic National Convention Postponed Amid Coronavirus

The convention had been set to take place in July

The Democratic National Convention has been postponed by about a month in light of the ongoing coronavirus crisis.

The convention, where delegates will confirm their party’s candidate for the presidential race, was originally slated to take place July 13-16. It is now scheduled to take place the week of Aug. 17, putting the DNC a week before the Republican National Convention, which is still scheduled to take place Aug. 24-27 in Charlotte, N.C.

The DNC  is expected to draw about 50,o00 people to Milwaukee, Wis.
