Grant finale a speech from president ial nominee Hillary Clinton. Bruce gordon is on the Convention Floor ahead of this historic night. Bruce . Reporter yeah, iain, the wrap on Hillary Clinton is that she possesses neither the natural political gifts for the public speaking skills of the past two deck cat tick president s both of whom of course have spoken glowingly on her behalf at this very convention. Well, tonight, Hillary Clinton the former first lady, former u. S. Senator, former secretary of state, gets the chance to try and out perform expectations. If the night Hillary Clinton supporters have been waiting for since at least 2008. The first woman to represent a major u. S. Political party as president ial nominee expectations are sky high. I think shes going to be very very convincing to night about what were going to do for america. Together. Together. Thats important. Reporter last night, secretary clinton shared the stage with the man she hopes to some day call her president ial predecessor. Tonight, shell be out there on stage all alone eyes of the political world focused laser like on her every word. Her every expression youre looking for passion. Im looking for passion and i dont think she needs to bring it because shes got great speakers before her. She has her own style. And but i think shes going to be very passionate and also what shes going to say substance really matters. Reporter look around the Wells Fargo Center and its hard to miss there are still plenty of Bernie Sanders fans who still need convincing that clinton club insists it shouldnt be all that hard. On the issues i think theres not a lot of daylight between two of us and i want to focus on finding that unity and carrying that into the general election and i want her to tuck about. Reporter we found sanders supporters ready on this last day of the convention to rain on clintons parade. Is there anything Hillary Clinton can sty night that would change your mound and put you on the band wagon . No. Because you cant trust anything that Hillary Clinton says. Reporter we will be watching for any signs of division or discord among those sanders hold outs. It should be a memorable evening. Iain . Absolutely, bruce. Looking forward it to. Thank you.

Authorities say a handful of people broke through the security fence outside the Wells Fargo Center. We brought this to you last night as breaking news. The secret service says seven people broke through a section of the fencing near broad street and patison avenue just before 11 00. Our jeff cole is live at fdr park tonight. Jeff, those demonstrators appeared in court today. Reporter yeah, they did appear in court darks and they face add federal magistrate. Before i talk about that we are at broad and patison us a said right at the fence the area of the fence that was breached yesterday. So whats happening here is these are demonstrator whos are yelling actually to the delegates as they get off the subway and head down to the dnc and they are yelling to them Election Fraud and saying that theyre not going to vote for Hillary Clinton no matter what happens here. As this all happens, lets now take a look at some of the activity along this very intersection last night. Guys there are people busting the fence open. Reporter moments of chaos at broad and paterson around 10 30 wednesday when protesters broke through a fence keeping them from the dnc. They have just broken in. Reporter federal government says a bolt cutter was used to open the gate erected at the edge of the fdr park. Video of the event appears to show a demonstrator approaching the gate with a cutting tool. Cell phone video posted online shows pushing and shoving as police form a line to block demonstrators and force them back. Police commissioner richard ross spoke to fox 29 soon after it was all over. Federal charges i mean you were warn. Why you would do that and subject yourself to that i have no absolutely no idea. Reporter spokesman with the secret service indicated to fox 29 this morning the fence had been strengthened overnight. Wednesday, fox 29 saw a lock and chain on nearby fence along the barricade. This morning, those were gone apparently replaced by metal bars. This man was there last night but didnt join his friends who he says were just trying to make their voices heard. The seven protesters face federal charges. You know theres a question of whether this violates first am the rights when you put a fence up and prevent protesters from actually being anywhere near the place where they intend to protest. Reporter so that is the argument actually that was made in court today, folks. They think their rights to protest are being violate baud theyre too far back. One of the protesters was actually held because the feds have claimed he had three throwing knives with him, and their defense lawyering sauce hes an emt and was using it to cut gauze. Here the Police Lining up. Not too far from we are and if we swing over again, here of course is the intersection where the breach occurred last night and folks are yelling at the delegates as they come in. Jeff cole live at fdr park. Folks, back to you. Sounds loud, thank you jeff. Republican nominee donald trump is doing his part getting lost in the dnc shuffle.

Camden is on the rise and the people are being left behind. Reporter camden active visit and long time resident of east camden Angel Cordero says the people who live on these empty abandoned drug filled streets tell a different story. I think the only thing rising is the drug abuse, the crime elderly people cant sit on their steps or wont sit on their steps because they dont know whats going to happen. Reporter residents say they applaud the billion dollar investments popping up downtown but hope people can see that many neighborhoods in this city are struggling and need help. Ive been in camden for more than frick years, and ive never seen the level of suffering thats going on right now.

Guys actually look rejuvenated and thats probably because Doug Pederson unfortunately this is not how pederson wanted to start his first real day of Training Camp. The rain forcing the guys to practice and side in the bubble but the first thing thats on everyones mind is actually the off the field issues. Ago go hov of hour and braddock dealing as sill allegations. Agholor wont be charged theyre not enough evidence. He spoke for the fir since he couldnt really get into any details but did talk about making poor decisions.

Fourth and final night of the Democratic National convention here we are at the Wells Fargo Center this man of course is democratic us senator from pennsylvania bob casey who took the stage monday night. Yeah. Pleasure having you here. Nice to have you here senator you came on donald trump it pretty hard for his business practice on monday night. What do you want people to take away from speech. Basically the candidate who says hell be great for business hes a businessman and he talk about making America Great doesnt seem to make anything in america in items of his products butt he brags a lot about it. I think his approach to economic stands in stark contrast to Hillary Clinton. Shes got a very specific economic plan that speaks to pennsylvania as well as the country i have a lot more confidence to focus on raising incomes and the middle class. Theres an addition to the platform which is to repeal the height amendment. Put taxpayer money made that forbidden to Fund Abortion and what they want to try and do get it back in medicaid off come out against this. Right. What are your thoughts. I thought the wrong way to go. Interesting thing about this Campaign Hillary even though we have a diss on that issue even when theres differences shes going to be the kind of president who will seek Common Ground on any issue to try to bring people together. One of her themes of her candidacy has been stronger together. Right. I think shell be the kind of president that will reach out to people on both parties and people within the Democratic Party who may not agree with her on this or that issue. Follow up to that. Senator tim kaine now vicepresident nominee tim kaine was against it much like you. And now it seems like hes kind of reeling himself back from that position. So what are your thoughts when you ooh that happening . Well, look, tim has had i think a very consistent position. Hes always said that hes had trouble with the issues. Personal opposition to a boring. Im in a little bit than different place than him in terms of how you vote but one thing about tim is, hes a person of grace, character and integrity. I know him personally. Hes someone very kept and got a lot of empathy with people are struggling with. Not only be a great running mate but i think a great vicepresident. Senator you addressed the pennsylvania delegation at a breakfast on monday ungot what some might call a awkward welcome. Can you tell us more about that. laughter . Im not going to mention the party chairmans name but his first name rhymes with marcel. An old friend of me kidding me about my speaking style i had to double down on that and say that as bad as our party chair i was once compared to oatmeal which is very boring. But very good for you. Thats how i won my leck. Youre good for pennsylvania. At least i hope i am. Thank you senator bob casey very much. Great to be with you. Busy night for you. I know its nice that you dropped by here. Thank you. Thanks again. With the dnc in town one popular app getting whole lot of extra use. Which apps saw nearly 50 increase in the philadelphia area.
