Democrats woke up Tuesday morning still aglow from Michelle Obama's epic address at the convention Monday evening.

It was a useful distraction from the ongoing tension with staunch Bernie Sanders supporters. Some have come around to Hillary Clinton, but protesters continued demonstrating in Philadelphia.

While on a train to the convention, our producer Kate Walters observed protesters being booted off the stop before the convention in a change of security protocol. You can see video of that and tweets of the day below.

The headline events for Tuesday evening will be the official roll call to confirm Clinton's nomination and an address by her husband, President Bill Clinton.
