10. I think an in-person convention would be terribly risky, even in August.

It is unlikely that vaccination will be available before August. It is unlikely that the virus will have disappeared, and a large gathering of thousands of excited people packed into a stadium would be deadly.

I think canceling the convention and moving to virtual would have been the right idea.

But, as I mentioned above, maybe they were looking at details I am unaware of.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
