CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - Charlotte City Councilman Braxton Winston posted a video on Facebook Monday asking citizens to weigh in on the possibility of the Republican National Convention coming to the Queen City in 2020.

As of Monday, Charlotte and Las Vegas were the final two cities in the running to host the 2020 RNC. In his Facebook post, Winston says it is "all but guaranteed that Charlotte will be selected" to host the event.

"We would be asking the people of Charlotte to host a celebration for a brand of politics that has been highly divisive and some would say dangerous to our community," Winston wrote. "The people of Charlotte deserve to be engaged by their leaders as we consider this decision. To this point I don't think we have done a good enough job with that engagement. I hope this video will be a call that our community members answer."

Have the convention in Welcome, NC 😀 or maybe at Charlotte Motor Speedway (which is not in Charlotte). At the Speedway, have Brad Keselowski drive Trump around the track...or Kevin Harvick...😀
