Several attorneys in Jacksonville, Florida, teamed up to file a lawsuit to stop the Republican National Convention from taking place there in August.

The lawsuit, filed in Duval County, makes several arguments as to why the city should not host the Republican National Convention as Florida’s coronavirus case numbers rise.

The suit said the convention would be “a nuisance injurious to the health [and] welfare” of the community.

“To avoid community spread of COVID-19 and to protect the health and welfare of Plaintiffs and the community, it is necessary and essential that all super spreader events where large numbers of people congregate in close proximity indoors not occur,” the suit reads.

The attorneys filed the suit days after Florida recorded the most coronavirus cases in a single day out of any state throughout the pandemic, having 11,458 cases as of Saturday.

I don't know why the Pubbies picked Jacksonville.
It's in a state that has yet to peak from coronavirus.

They would have done better picking a state in which the epidemic either has "peaked and passed" or perhaps someplace where it never has gained much traction at all.

Idaho, Montana, or Wyoming, perhaps.
Or South or North Dakota.
If need be, scale it down to match the local facilities, hotels, etc.
And tell the media to stay at home.

What a mess!  I'm hoping that Trump gets his convention.  No word on the DEM plans for a convention?

Has anyone checked Craigslist in the Jacksonville area to see if they are advertising for persons with Covid to infect others?  I would not put it passed them.
