The Republican National Committee (RNC) voted to keep official convention business in Charlotte, North Carolina, but move President Donald Trump’s speech to accept the GOP nomination elsewhere.
GOP officials, frustrated by Gov. Roy Cooper’s refusal to say the Republican National Convention venue could be filled to capacity because of CCP virus-related restrictions, began last month looking at alternative sites. But city attorneys and members of the Charlotte Host Committee have said moving the entire convention would violate contractual agreements.
