DNC Delegate selection plan hearing

I'm in the delegate selection hearing.  The current proposal before the board is a selection plan that would have the caucuses after the election.  Lots of people are unhappy with this, and Susie Shannon, the e-board rep for the 42nd AD, has submitted a proposal to maintain the pre-primary caucuses.

The vast majority of the speakers are in favor of Susie Shannon's proposal, including me--I just went up to speak, and said that I want people to go to Denver for a candidate, not go to Denver for themselves, and that if the campaigns are too busy, then the DNC should do something to arrange a plan that doesn't force states to compete against each other for relevance.

I'll update this post as things go on, but right now it's just speakers.
