Taking care of business -

 Dallas media outlet wfaa.com carried an AP feed of Day 1 of the Dem Convo, including: 

Harris will travel Tuesday to Milwaukee for a rally in the swing state of Wisconsin before returning to Chicago late in the evening.

The Harris campaign said Tuesday that it will spotlight “trusted messengers” from key battleground states over the convention’s three remaining days. They include Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada; Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Sen. Gary Peters and Rep. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan; Sen. Bob Casey of Pennsylvania and Sen. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin. From Arizona, Sen. Mark Kelly will speak along with John Giles, the Republican mayor of Mesa.

Gov. Roy Cooper of North Carolina will be the last speaker before Harris accepts the Democratic nomination on Thursday.

States in play have featured speakers. Wisconsin beckons.

Showtime is for bolstering the groupies. Chips are down in Wisconsin. Convention face time is given those who will push locally in swing states. Reminding viewers who they are, where they will be. What the ongoing message is. It is business. It is awareness of states Trump took or did well in back in 2016 when Podesta and the Clintons did not care to push as hard as you will see Harris-Walz pushing.
