The Secret Service, alongside CPD Supt. Larry Snelling, Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Mayor Brandon Johnson , will hold an 11:30 a.m. news conference to release the comprehensive safety map and other security measures for the convention, which is being held at the United Center from Aug. 19-22.The convention spans four days and is expected to bring 50,000 people from across the world to Chicago , including 5,000 delegates and alternates as well as 15,000 members of the media.
"Already, 65-plus organizations in Chicago and elsewhere have formed a coalition to "March on the DNC" when it opens there on Aug. 19. Activists have sued in federal court, alleging First Amendment violations because the city has only offered permits for demonstrations miles from the United Center.Protesters preparing for the convention have vowed to march on it anyway, raising the specter of clashes with police that could further divide the Democratic base.
