LOOKING BACK

This year, I was hoping to cover the Democratic Convention in Milwaukee, WI, which is not too far from my home town of Chicago. My plans obviously changed when the convention was changed to a virtual event. So instead, I will post some of my earlier photos of some of the politicians who participated in this virtual convention.
