Republican leaders in town Tuesday for convention site visit

Category: Republican

Cincinnati leaders are preparing to roll out the red carpet for national Republican officials.

The Republican National Committee Convention Site Selection Committee is visiting all six cities vying to land the 2016 convention.

The team arrives in Cincinnati Tuesday.

The visit is one of the final steps before the next round of eliminations in May.

The committee will visit Cleveland Wednesday. Cincinnati is the second to last city on the teams visit circuit.

If Cincinnati makes the cut, a larger delegation of Republican officials will visit the Queen City in late May or early June.

The full Republican committee will vote on its choice for convention host city by late summer or early fall.

Ohio is traditionally a battleground state during presidential elections.

The streetcar could be a selling feature for the citys bid.

The project manager said Monday that people could begin riding the rails two months earlier than expected. He estimated the loop could open by September 2016.
