Republicans have selected Jacksonville, Florida, to host the celebration marking President Trump’s acceptance of his party’s nomination for reelection.
Cash from donors big and small is gushing into Biden’s campaign, driven by concern over Trump and growing confidence in the Democrat’s operation.
The Jacksonville area, home to a major military base, has a population of about 1.5 million. Mayor Len Curry is a former chairman of the state Republican Party, and the area is the home base of GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis, a key Trump ally.“Florida is honored to host this special event where we will celebrate the re-nomination of President Donald J. Trump,” DeSantis said in a statement Thursday.
Florida’s prize of 29 electoral votes is considered crucial to Trump’s bid for a second term. That celebration could generate at least $100 million in revenue for the host city, perhaps more.But Ben Frazier, a black activist with the Northside Coalition of Jacksonville, said the event would be disruptive to the city during a time of racial tension and a pandemic.
