US: Election rallies planned in Tulsa on June 19

Event

US President Donald Trump is due to hold his first re-election campaign rally in Tulsa (Oklahoma state) on June 19. President Trump's rallies were due to begin in March 2020; however, they had to be postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The rally will coincide with Juneteenth, which is an annual celebration of the end of slavery in the US.

Further rallies or protests linked to the re-election rally and the annual celebration of the end of slavery are likely in the Tulsa area in the near term.
