A record number of bloggers will receive credentials to cover the Democratic National Convention this summer in Denver.

"We're excited to provide bloggers with the opportunity to be the eyes and ears of so many at this convention," Aaron Myers, director of online communications for the Democratic National Convention Committee, said Thursday.

"Today, we are shattering the standard we set just four years ago, when the 2004 Democratic Convention was the first to credential blogs," he said.

"This year, we will more than triple the number of blogs credentialed to witness history in the making."

Thursday, the DNCC released a list of 124 bloggers who received credentials as members of the media to cover the Democratic National Convention, which will be held Aug. 25-28 at the Pepsi Center.

Four years ago, 30 blogs were granted access to the convention in Boston.
