Milwaukee shows off to attract Democratic convention

[TexasTowelie]

Alex Lasry went to Philadelphia in 2016 to serve as a delegate for Hillary Clinton at the Democratic National Convention.

Lasry and others leading the effort to bring the convention to Milwaukee hosted members of the Democratic National Committee technical advisory team for two days.

Nineteen people — who arrived at General Mitchell International Airport beginning Aug. 27 — lodged in local hotels, toured arenas and centers, rode buses, and checked out eateries, pubs, and galleries. They also mingled with more than 150 business and community leaders at a meet-and-greet Aug. 28.
