RNC Picks Charlotte for 2020 Convention

Austin, Texas

The Republican National Committee’s site selection committee unanimously backed Charlotte on Wednesday as the site for its 2020 national convention, according to two party officials familiar with the process.

That means Charlotte will likely be the city where President Donald Trump is nominated for a second term. He would accept the nomination in Spectrum Center, where his Democratic predecessor, President Barack Obama, launched his own bid for another term in 2012.

Charlotte would be hosting its second national political convention in a decade. The RNC is expected to formally approve Charlotte on Friday as part of its summer meeting in Austin, Texas.
