FDP Chair Terrie Rizzo released the following statement after Milwaukee was chosen to host the 2020 DNC Convention:

“While we are disappointed that Miami was not chosen as the host city, we are excited for America to see our 2020 candidates take the stage in Milwaukee. I want to thank Mayor Dan Gelber and his outstanding team who went above and beyond to highlight Miami’s strengths.

“We are currently in talks to host one of the first primary debates in Florida this summer. We believe it is essential for our candidates to be introduced to Florida voters as early as possible – and this is the best way to do that. We will continue to encourage the DNC to make this early investment in Florida to help set-up our eventual nominee for success on day one.”
