Republican Party formally nominates Trump for second term
CHARLOTTE, Aug 24, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – The Republican Party formally
nominated President Donald Trump to seek a second term on Monday, the
first day of a scaled-back convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Overwhelming support from delegates around the country quickly got
Trump to the needed 1,276 minimum of votes. He was due to speak at the
convention shortly after flying down from the capital Washington.
