RNC SITE SELECTION COMMITTEE TO VISIT THREE CITIES TO DETERMINE HOST OF 2012 REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION
WASHINGTON – Michigan National Committeewoman and Site Selection Chair Holly Hughes announced today that the RNC Site Selection Committee will visit three cities to determine the host of the 2012 Republican National Convention. The twelve member committee will visit Phoenix, Tampa, and Salt Lake City in late March and early April. The RNC members are scheduled to vote on the Site Selection Committee’s recommendation at their annual Summer Meeting in July 2010.
“We were thrilled to receive bids from these three dynamic cities in key regions of the country and the Committee looks forward to working with each city’s representatives to determine the best city to host the 2012 convention,” said Hughes.
Bid proposals had to be submitted to the RNC by January 15th. The Site Selection Committee hosted an “Interested Cities Day” in November where several cities sent representatives to work with the Committee on their bids.
RNC Chairman Michael Steele said, “I am extremely proud of the tremendous job the RNC Site Selection Committee is doing evaluating potential cities to host the 2012 Republican National Convention. Their dedication to the process is commendable and their great work will play a major role in the overall success of the convention. Phoenix, Tampa, and Salt Lake City are all amazing American cities and I wish them the best of luck with their bids.”
