2024 Democratic National Convention to be Held in Chicago
Convention to Return to Windy City for First Time Since 1996
Chicago Chosen to Host Event After Competitive Bidding Process
The Democratic National Convention (DNC) will be held in Chicago, Illinois, from August 19 to 22, 2024, the party announced on Thursday. This will be the first time the convention has been held in Chicago since 1996, when former President Bill Clinton was nominated for a second term.
The announcement was made after a competitive bidding process that included several other cities, including Atlanta, Houston, and Milwaukee. Chicago was ultimately selected due to its strong infrastructure, transportation network, and experience hosting large-scale events.
The 2024 DNC is expected to draw tens of thousands of delegates, activists, and media members to Chicago. The event will be a major economic boost to the city and will provide a platform for the party to showcase its platform and candidates.
The Democratic National Convention is a quadrennial event that is held to nominate the party's presidential and vice-presidential candidates. The convention also adopts the party's platform and sets the party's agenda for the upcoming election cycle.
The 2024 DNC is expected to be a closely watched event, as the Democratic Party will be looking to build on its success in the 2020 election and reclaim the White House in 2024.
