Chants of "Goldman Sachs" when HRC supporters tried to disrupt the debate
The super delegate issue - condemned by Bernie supporters, embraced by HRC supporters
Repeated calls from State Party Appartchiks to "work from within the party to change it" which the rank and file were having none of
It came dangerously close to getting out of hand. At one point a couple of cops suddenly showed up. I assume someone from the organizing committee or the Party called them.

(9,497 posts)We had some issues with it but we didn't even get our initial count done until 3:30 but were scheduled to start at 1...crazy busy. I gave my speech to elect me to be a delegate at state at 5:30 and then left...there were still people giving speeches. Good news, we will send 15 delegates to state to I think around 9 for h. It was hot and the counting took forever. Good news, lots of ages, equal gender ratio and lots of minorities. That includes Asian, Asian Pacific , Latino and Black.
The speech to try to shift the vote from the h supporter was about how mean the republicans had been and the one from the Bernie supporter said she would vote for Hillary if nominated but gave a feel good, all inclusive kind of talk. We had about 900 people

(9,497 posts)I had two dogs in a house (that I left with access to the yard), but from 10 am. I had to get back to make sure they hadn't killed each other, that they hadn't torn up the house and or killed themselves because they NEED people.
They were very happy to see me and alive and well. The house was in one piece.

Jeez, just told we're halfway. I might be the ONLY person here who isn't running for delegate

(9,497 posts)He gave a good speech in how we would still have the same numbers from our precinct at State, just not necessarily from our neighborhood. This worked because we were sweltering in a closed gym and we had more delegates.
And they're wanting for the ballots from the printer
