Monday was the inauguration of President Obama once again as President of the United States. Here is a view of what the two candidates for the 11th council district did.
Andrew Cohen candidate for the 11th council district went to the Ben Franklin Democratic Club to watch the inauguration of President Obama with club members and fellow Democrats. Everyone at the Ben Franklin Club had their attention on the large television that was broadcasting the inauguration. Just like at the event there was clapping when there was a pause by President Obama in his speech, and when other speakers had finished their speeches. One heard cheers for New York, U.S. Senator Chuck Schummer who was the emcee of most of the inauguration. After the event there was discussion and a light snack.

At the same time at Yo Burger on Riverdale Avenue PS 24 had a Day of Service & Inauguration Party" led by 11th council candidate Cliff Stanton. Children from PS 24 were there with their parents to help make bag lunches for a local food pantry while the T.V.'s at Yo Burger had the presidential inauguration on.
