Convention Notes - June 5 AM

While the convention seems ready to get to tomorrow's leadership vote (in what has to be a first, every segment actually ran ahead of schedule), a few notes based on this morning's proceedings...

The one proposed constitutional amendment was overwhelmingly rejected, with nobody even speaking in support.

In the health/education/party affairs panel which I attended, all but one resolution passed - and that one failed due to the lack of a mover. For those wondering, PA-7 did pass but in an amended form. Meanwhile, only one policy discussion gave way to leadership issues - and even that got back on track quickly.

One other interesting note is the convention theme: "Forward Together for a better tomorrow". Presumably the message wasn't intended to favour any one leadership contender, but the similarity to Ryan Meili's "Our Future Together" theme is tough to ignore.
