Inside the Convention Hall

Want to know what it's like inside the convention hall? Here's a clip with the crowd dancing to I'm So Excited. The room was definitely more packed on Day 2 but I suspect it may have to do with people finding a loophole in the credential system. Because there's no photo ID, you can pass your credential to someone else, who can then go outside and pass it to someone with only hallway clearance.



Hillary definitely had her night. I thought the DNC printed way more of the redesigned Hillary poster boards than most other ones (there definitely was a surplus), so I took a whole stack back with me. We also took the Hillary/Obama/Unity vertical signs wrapped in long cardboard rolls back home, but those are probably going to have to be shipped home.


It seems that some people from our section who are getting camera footage are those that are either wearing something distinct (i.e. turbin, T-shirt) so I've decided to wear my San Francisco 49ers hat tomorrow. That might prevent me from sitting in another delegation's section, but since there's roll call tomorrow we may actually have to show up on time (tonight some of us attended Anna's event so I personally got seated around 6:45 pm).

Mary Ann Ostrom from the San Jose Mercury News says these postings are all tech-related, but I'll just have to point out that there are some serious policy postings included in this blog. So there.
