As Kamala Harris accepts the Democratic nomination for president inside the United Center Aug. 22 before a room full of delegates, donors and party elites, ordinary Chicagoans will be able to join the party at Soldier Field.
The Democratic National Convention is coming to Chicago Monday through Aug. 22 to rally the party behind Harris, who was catapulted to the top of the Democratic ticket after President Joe Biden exited the race.
But the convention isn’t open to just anyone. The way to get in is to be a delegate or donor, have ties to the Democratic Party or volunteer.
GoChiLife, a nonprofit that aims to build partnerships to “showcase the best of Chicago,” is planning a watch party at Soldier Field for community members, a spokesperson said.
The event will be Aug. 22 starting at 7 p.m., and include a live viewing of Harris’ acceptance speech.
Hip-hop artist Tobe Nwigwe will take the stage at 10 p.m. as the night’s headlining entertainment act.
Tickets to the event are free. Attendees just have to register online.

It maybe a tired thing to say but I’ll say it; Kamala Harris may be the most extremist leftist we have had run for office yet.
Said about Obama, then Biden…clearly the Demorats are drifting left at ever increasing rates.
Kamala’s Daddy was / is a Marxist. Here is a paper written by him, so Marxist it’s actually in the title:

The Tramp wins the dem nomination without one single vote, 15 million people made their way to the polls over many months for Xiden.
This whole process ought to be named hitherto >> dele”gate” << to name this infamous disfranchising of voters.
They’re going to blow loads of money on this and not get the results they wanted

Bring a bunch of empty balloons in, then go to the restroom and fill them up with water. Water balloons are the great equalizer, or at least you can throw them at the screens in Soldier Field.
Soldier Field seats about 66,000. My wife went to her first and only concert there last year with her daughter to see some guy named Ed Sheeran. They set a record of over 73,000. Harris can’t half fill a high school gym. How many do you suppose they’re going to get to show up? If you turn the wrong way on Lake Shore Drive leaving the place you end up on Chicago’s south side. Good luck escaping there with your car and your valuables intact.

I’m curious. Are the actual primary votes from registered Democrat voters going to be cast first? THEN the delegates assigned and then they vote? That’s how this is all going to happen? In just one part of a day?
If they can do all that counting in a few hours why did it take them days to count votes in 2020? Those poor people had to work until 3 and 4 o’clock in the morning for cripes sake.
Watch Party? The last thing I’d ever had suspected is that they’d broadcast Armageddon as a “watch party.”
The democrats must spend a fortune on bussing.
Will she borrow Obama’s styrofoam columns?

Let’s hope about 10,000 Jew haters show up and disrupt.

That would be at 1060 West Addison....
I certainly won’t watch. I don’t have to smell poop to know that it stinks.
