Washington:  US President Donald Trump will accept the Republican Party’s presidential nomination for a second term in Jacksonville, Florida, it was announced.

The announcement by Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on Thursday came after North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, a Democrat, refused to allow the Republican National Convention, scheduled for August 24-27 in Charlotte, to take place without restrictions on crowd size and other measures against COVID-19. “We are thrilled to celebrate this momentous occasion in the great city of Jacksonville,” said McDaniel said in a statement.

The national convention’s official business will still take place in Charlotte but “the celebration of the nomination and the economic impact that goes with it must be moved to Jacksonville”, the Republican Party said. (IANS)
