Not only were there various community meetings, a Vice Presidential Debate, but a Yankee playoff game the same night.

Heastie (who brought his 3 year old daughter Taylor with him), BDCC Chairman Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz who brought with him the new BDCC Vice-Chair Mr. Andrew Cohen (who is rumored to be a candidate for the soon to be term limited11th City Council seat), current 80th A.D. Assemblywoman Naomi Rivera, Soon to be the new 87th A.D. Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda, State Senator Jeff Klein, New York City Comptroller John Liu, Councilman Jimmy Vacca, Bronx DA Robert Johnson, and Brooklyn Councilwoman (and candidate for Public Advocate in 2013) Leticca James.
