After more than a year of planning, announcements and a flurry of questions from just about everybody, we’re now only about 100 days out from the Republican National Convention.
Which means it’s time for even more RNC stuff. Seriously, it’s going to be RNC overload. Anyway, the RNC itself is in on the game and released this promo vid, which promises history and unity and runs you through the 173 people who initially set out to be the GOP nominee, as if that were reason to get excited about all of this.
The caption under the video states:
It has been one of the most exciting primary seasons with the largest field in GOP history, record voter turnouts, and enthusiasm not seen in a generation. The real question is, ‘Will you be there?’The convention will be held at The Q July 18 – 21.
