2024 Democratic National Convention to Be Held in Chicago

Chicago to Host Democratic Convention

Candidate Race Remains Close

The 2024 Democratic National Convention will be held in Chicago, Illinois from July 15-18, 2024, the Democratic National Committee announced today. The convention will be held at the United Center, which has a capacity of over 20,000 people.

The announcement comes as the Democratic primary race remains close, with former Vice President Joe Biden and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg leading in the polls. However, a new poll released today by the Pew Research Center shows that the race is still very competitive, with Biden and Bloomberg tied nationally and in battleground states.

The convention will be a major event for the Democratic Party, as it will be the first time that the party has held its convention in Chicago since 1996. The convention will also be an important opportunity for the Democratic candidates to make their case to voters before the general election in November.
