The convention was a long one, but not by 8th CD standards, convening at 10:00 am and closing at 4:40 pm. A bit of contention on rules and one resolution kept the attendees busy, but all in all it was a good day - DEMOCRATS WON!
All resolutions presented by the Permanent Resolutions Committee were adopted by the convention.
