MILWAUKEE (SPECTRUM NEWS) -- The coronavirus outbreak is canceling and postponing dozens of events across our state, including the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

 

The DNC was originally scheduled for July 13-17, but will now be held the week of August 17.

DNC committee leaders have been working on contingency plans as the coronavirus spread continues across the country. 

We talked with Raquel Filmanowicz, the new CEO of the Milwaukee 2020 Host Committee about the work that’s still happening behind the scenes during this pandemic. 

The DNC is now just one week before the Republican National Convention in Charlotte which begins on Monday, August 24​.
