The Democratic Party of Wisconsin is moving its state convention to an all-virtual format. The party had originally planned to scale back the event to one day on June 12.

The decision comes a week after the Wisconsin Republican Party told its members it was pushing back its state convention two months to July.

The news was first reported by WisPolitics. [2]

State Democratic spokeswoman Courtney Beyer told WisPolitics the party is still working on details for the June 12 virtual convention.

The Democratic Party’s national convention is still scheduled for August in Milwaukee. [3] As of right now, party officials have said the event will be held in-person.
