Republicans are set to host their inaugural national convention ahead of November’s midterm elections, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday. This unprecedented event aims to galvanize voter turnout in crucial races that will determine the party’s control of Congress. The convention is scheduled for September 9 and 10 in Dallas.
While major parties traditionally reserve such large-scale conventions for presidential campaigns, Trump has long advocated for a similar gathering this year to focus public attention on the numerous House and Senate contests.
