The convention is taking place right now in Dover. The convention has already brought us some the surprising news of Mitch Crane’s endorsement. The rest of the convention will be devoted to selecting delegates to the National Convention in Charlotte later this summer. Then tonight, the Jeffereson-Jackson Dinner will be held, with Newark Mayor Cory Booker giving the keynote speech.
Please use this thread for any more news, and as your open thread for the day.

Dave Woodside withdrew..focus the male at large delegate for Norman Spector
Kent chose Harold Stafford and Laurie James
Sussex chose Jane Hovington, Beth Doty and Tim Willard
Wilmington chose Hanifa Shabazz and Mark Murowany
Nerd prom tonight.
Jane Hovington is well deserving of being selected as a delegate. Tim Willard not so much.
Spector also covers the hispanic delegate slot- time for two Hispanic delegates based on the census tho
Jane Hovington and Beth Doty are both excellent choices.
I’m honored (and excited beyond belief) to be selected. I plan to do us proud. 🙂
