What they’ve said (over past three weeks)...mostly a scaled down operation. The people who will be there, are going to a smaller building (Wisconsin Center), which I would speculate on less cost involved.
No one says the number of people, but it appears that small groups from each state will show up with proxy-like ballots.
I would suggest it’s scripted to have Biden announce health problems on the day or two prior, and this big opening occurs, with drama going on for two solid days, but no one really there but maybe 500 to 1k people.
Biden from that day on...I think he will not be seen ever again in any public setting (even on election day).
Everyone will stand there and ask why he didn’t drop out in January, and allow Bernie to continue on...with the news media avoiding the discussion entirely.
Though I don’t watch much of the news, it’s curious that I don’t see or hear much from the previous big players and king makers in the Dem. Party...Podesta (hopefully has other concerns), Washerwoman-Schultz, even Perez... Either they’re skulking around in the underground plotting a surprise or they’re raging in near silence.
