The convention hall is alive with energy as guests dance to music and cheer loudly for the speakers. However, not everyone is able to join in on the festivities as the floor has been closed due to reaching capacity. This is a common occurrence at conventions, but tonight it happened earlier than expected.

One Democrat who made the journey from Philadelphia expressed disappointment as she was not allowed entry into the crowded hall. The situation highlights the challenges of managing large events and ensuring the safety and comfort of all attendees.

As the party continues inside, those outside the closed floor may be feeling left out of the excitement. It serves as a reminder of the importance of planning ahead and arriving early to secure a spot at popular events.
