Tuesday on Lake Effect:
DNC delegates describe what it’s like to participate from home and how they’re making the best of the experience. Then, we hear from a DNC volunteer who was called off after the convention went virtual. We hear an essay about Joe Biden’s VP pick. Plus, we learn about the lesser-told history of the women involved in the suffrage movement on the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment. Then, we look at how the hospitality industry in Milwaukee has been impacted by COVID-19 and the scaled back DNC.
