4. The DNC organizers get an A+ for this event! It's been on-time, safe, & fun!

I scored a great spot. I can mostly see the stage which is a ways off. I can see the lecturn at about 12:00 from my car drivers seat. Fortunately, there’s a big video screen and speakers at 11:00 about 60’ from my car!

The Secret Service has us locked down and locked in. No one was able to come in or leave after 2pm. The adjacent Sugarloaf Parkway, a probably other roads, will be closed from 5-7 pm. The Gwinnett County airport is close by and AF1 will land there. There is a continuous line of transit buses and large dump trucks parked bumper to bumper on the perimeter roads around the site.

Secret Service and other security are everywhere. The Secret Service and police K9 dogs are patrolling the entire site. They recently went past my car. I’ll never be safer!
