Jacksonville, July 18 (RHC)-- In the United States, Republican leaders said they will scale back in-person attendance at the Republican National Convention in Jacksonville next month, as Florida suffers one of the world’s worst outbreaks of COVID-19.
The Republican National Committee’s plans call for a mix of indoor and outdoor events, with only regular delegates permitted to attend the first three days of convention business — about 2,500 people each day.
When President Donald Trump formally accepts the nomination on August 27, the RNC plan calls for a crowd of up to 7,000 people.
