But even in Utah's delegation, some ill will remained, including several Obama delegates, galled at what they see as lukewarm support during the historic event and insistence on a televised roll call in the race decided months ago.
State Sen. Scott McCoy said he never saw the point in Clinton backers insisting on sticking with their candidate and supporting a public roll call.
"I don't understand what purpose it serves," he said. "Symbolically, to the rest of the world, what does it say?"
But he said the divisions in the Utah group are not unique and similar tensions have existed within every delegation at the convention.
All nine of Utah's Clinton delegates cast their votes for the New York senator.
Among them was Apollo Pazell, who at age 18 is Clinton's youngest delegate, and was selected to give a short speech seconding her nomination Wednesday, which he said he was doing on behalf of his great-grandmothers, who were born before women had the right to vote.
He told the crowd of about 10,000 that he was drawn to Clinton after his great-grandmother, a breast cancer survivor, lost her health coverage when her husband died.
"I see our broken health care system through her experience, an experience shared by too many people, and I believe with all my heart that we can and must achieve health care for all," he said.
Obama won 19 Utah votes. Rep. Jim Matheson's superdelegate vote was not cast. He did not attend the convention for the third time, explaining that his son was starting fourth grade this week.
The Utah votes weren't announced in the public roll call, aborted after Clinton moved to recognize Obama as the nominee.
Obama delegate Kelvin Davis, who is black, was frustrated that all of the Clinton backers were not enthusiastically embracing Obama.
"I can't figure that out, because we're all in this together," he said. "She lost. What part of that don't they understand?"
Davis was particularly offended by Pazell's plans not to attend Obama's acceptance speech tonight.
"What really breaks my back is to see him leave in a way that is disrespectful. It's disrespectful," said Davis.
But late Wednesday, Pazell changed his plans and decided to stay for the speech.
Lisa Allcott, a Clinton delegate, said she is confident the Clinton supporters will warm to Obama, quoting Clinton, who said in a conference call that her supporters have much more in common with Obama than they ever will with Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain. But it might take time.
"It's only been since early June - 2 1/2 months - and it's hard when you're loyal to a candidate and you lose. You just need some time."
Jenny Wilson, a Clinton delegate and Salt Lake County councilwoman, said Clinton deserved the recognition from her delegates.
"I felt my vote clearly was a symbolic recognition that it was a hard fought race, a tribute to someone who . . . I would like to see in the Oval Office in January," said Wilson. "We have another very good option."
