Hard to put any better spin on the decision this late in the game by the DNC to move their Monday night festival thing from Charlotte Motor Speedway back to uptown Charlotte. From the UPoR:
“It really is about creating an experience that people feel like they have a taste of the convention,” said Dan Murrey, DNC host committee executive director. “And just given the accessibility to uptown versus the speedway, the connection to the convention, and the caucus meetings, we took a step back, consulted very thoroughly with our partners in the city, and made the decision this is going to be … more in line with our original goals of the event.”
Weren’t all those consideration obvious five months when the decision was made to have the festival at the speedway? Why yes, I do believe they were.
