MILWAUKEE, WI (WHBL) – Milwaukee is sending its bid to host the 2024 Republican National Convention without a demand for six million-dollars.
The city’s Common Council on Wednesday unanimously approved the bid which clears the way for Milwaukee to formally request the convention in two years. It wasn’t a foregone conclusion, as last week a couple of aldermen demanded a six million-dollar payout to host the convention, and a number of progressive groups opposed hosting the convention.
Milwaukee and Nashville are the final two possible host cities for the convention. A winner should be announced by the end of the month.
