“The Republican National Committee voted Friday to hold a midterm political convention, launching an unusual GOP festival that President Donald Trump will headline in hopes of rallying supporters to focus on the critical fall fight for control of Congress,” CNN reports.
“To fulfill Trump’s wish of staging a political convention later this year, Republican leaders had to change party rules that previously only called for a convention during presidential election years.”
Politico: “Democrats, who held a series of midterm-year national conventions in the 1970s, are also flirting with the possibility.”
