The Democratic National Convention Committe (DNCC) has announced convention events for the Bank of America Stadium on Thursday, September 6 will be moved to the Time Warner Cable Arena, due to severe weather forecasts. According to the DNCC President Obama will address community credential- holders on a conference call on Thursday. Information on the call will be e-mailed directly to community credential-holders.
“We have been monitoring weather forecasts closely and several reports predict thunderstorms in the area, therefore we have decided to move Thursday’s proceedings to Time Warner Cable Arena to ensure the safety and security of our delegates and convention guests,” said DNCC CEO Steve Kerrigan. The energy and enthusiasm for our convention in Charlotte has been overwhelming and we share the disappointment of over 65,000 people who signed up for the community credentials to be there with the President in person. We encourage our community credential-holders and Americans across the country to continue to come together with their friends and neighbors to watch and participate in history. The President will speak to these credential holders on a national conference call tomorrow afternoon, and we will work with with the campaign to ensure that those unable to attend tomorrow’s event will be invited to see the President between now and election day.”
