This just in from the DNC…

Dear DNC Member,

Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz will announce today the 2016 Democratic  National Convention will be held the week of July 25, 2016.  The Committee is still in final contract negotiations to decide a host city for the convention and will announce the decision in the coming weeks. 

Stay tuned for an announcement of which city will host the convention

Update:This is the earliest an incumbent Democratic party has held their convention since the Truman convention started on July 12, 1948, and the earliest either incumbent party has held their convention since the Nixon convention started on July 25, 1960.
