Pelosi Suggests Convention In a Huge Stadium

May 8, 2020 · 11:35 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Democrats should hold their convention in a huge stadium, The Hill reports.

Said Pelosi: “So my suggestion to Mr. Perez was get a gigantic stadium and put people six feet apart. So maybe instead of having 80,000 people there, you would have 16,000 people there and just do it all in one day… have your platform and then nominate your vice president, nominate the president, have your speeches and everyone go home.”
