GREENSBORO, N.C. — The top contenders for the 2024 Republican nomination will appear at the NC GOP state convention next month in Greensboro.
Former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will deliver dinner speeches on back-to-back nights at the event. Former Vice President Mike Pence will speak at a luncheon on Saturday, June 10. Trump will speak later that night.
Trump endorsed now-Sen. Ted Budd at the 2021 state convention, helping Budd secure the GOP nomination and the general election.
Trump and Pence carried North Carolina in their successful 2016 campaign for the White House and again in an unsuccessful 2020 bid.
