I think it worked very well for the roll call to be on location in each state

It allowed each state to feature people and places of significance in a way that couldn't be done at a live gathering in a single location.

A bit confused as to why my state of Connecticut chose a firehouse in Hartford, though....

I want it to be this way from now on (assuming we don't lose in November and subsequently lose anything America is about).

I thought it was better than traditional. The applause afterwords was difficult though.
