As the Republican National Convention gets underway in New York, we get some perspective on being a convention delegate from a veteran of the political process. Executive Councilor Ruth Griffin from Portsmouth has been participating as a delegate at Republican Conventions since 1972. She's currently in New York applying her 30+ years of convention experience to the GOP's platform committee.

We'll also hear words of wisdom from a straight-talking former New Yorker on what kinds of things delegates should and should not do while in the Big Apple. Victoria Shouldis was weaned in New York City but now lives in Hillsboro.
