From a report at the link below:
The list of speakers includes professional golfer Natalie Gulbis and UFC president Dana White, but is notably short on Republican stars.
Only five of the 16 Republicans who ran against Trump will be speaking, including Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, and Scott Walker.
Former Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney as well as former Republican presidential nominee John McCain are not on the list of speakers. Also not on the speaker list is former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
There was clearly considerable effort invested in ensuring that the speakers would look more like the general electorate than the party’s base. The list includes a number of women—Senator Joni Ernst; Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi; Eileen Collins, the first woman to command a U.S. spacecraft.
