RNC Day 1 begins with Trump poised to announce VP pick

The first day of the Republican National Convention is getting underway in Milwaukee, where former President Donald Trump is expected to be formally nominated and announce his pick for a vice presidential running mate.

Tens of thousands of Republicans, including more than 2,400 delegates, have descended on Milwaukee for the convention, with dozens of prominent lawmakers and officials set to address attendees over the course of the four-day affair. The first floor session is getting underway with the roll call vote of states to formally nominate Trump expected to begin soon.

Trump is set to name his running mate ahead of the later vote to nominate his selection. Sens. J.D. Vance of Ohio, Tim Scott of South Carolina, Marco Rubio of Florida and former North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum are believed to be on Trump’s shortlist to get the nod.

The gathering comes just two days after Trump narrowly survived an assassination attempt during a rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was struck by a bullet in the ear and one attendee died after being shot by the gunman, who was killed by Secret Service snipers. 

The attack threatened to upend the proceedings in Milwaukee, but Trump quickly said he was determined to proceed and arrived in the city on Sunday evening. He is scheduled to address the convention on Thursday night.

Here’s the latest from the 2024 RNC:
