MDP Celebrates Announcement of 

Chicago as Host of 

2024 Democratic National Convention


Kansas City, Mo - The Democratic National Committee today announced Chicago will host the 2024 Democratic National Convention at the United Center from August 19 to 22. “I’m happy to know the National Democratic Convention will be returning to the heart of America to our neighbor in Illinois,” said Russ Carnahan, Chairman of the Missouri Democratic Party. 


Chicago’s convention bid was supported by a wide range of midwestern Democrats who represent the diversity of the party, demonstrating the formidable coalition that will help re-elect President Biden and Vice President Harris, and elect Democrats up and down the ticket. The region will showcase President Biden’s economic agenda which is rebuilding our roads and bridges, unleashing a manufacturing boom, and creating good-paying middle-class jobs. Chicago has already felt the impact of Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, including $144 million to rehabilitate the four Illinois International Port Calumet River Bridges, with billions in investments to expand economic opportunity around the region. 


“Missouri will be crucial in the 2024 general elections,” said Carnahan. "I believe we have some amazing assets on our side. Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power. We have a deep bench of experienced current and former Democratic leaders with records of service to be championed. We have a talented and passionate new generation of leaders who are energized to move Missouri to a brighter future beyond the backward policies coming out of the one-party Republican rule in Jefferson City--policies that regularly put Missouri in the national news in ways that are nothing short of cringe-worthy. I encourage you to join me as we look forward to 2024!”
