Team Diaz 2014 Christmas Party



 That was what the banner read - State Senator Ruben Diaz Sr., Assemblyman Marcos Crespo, and Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda Merry Christmas - Happy New Year.
  It was standing room only at Maestros last night for the Annual Senator Diaz Christmas Party, and with every seat taken people were lined up outside the door waiting to get in. As you will see in the photos below there was no shortage of elected officials on hand.


Could this be Team Diaz 2015 - Assemblyman Marcos Crespo, New York State Comptroller Tom Di Napoli, Senator Ruben Diaz Sr., Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda, and Assemblyman Michael Blake?



  On hand was Mr. Larry Blackman of Fresh Direct who were one of the sponsors of the party.


State Comptroller Tom Dinapoli waves to the crowd. It was Controller Dinapoli who received the most votes of any statewide candidate in the November election.











Left - Bronx District Attorney Robert Johnson speaks to the audience, as Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda translates the speech into Spanish. The two look at each other as some people think Sepulveda is going to run for Bronx DA next year. 
Right - Those rumors can be forgotten as the pair appear to be good friends.


Newly elected Assemblyman Michael Blake address the audience. Could Assemblyman Blake be the next member of Team Diaz in 2015? Assemblyman Mark Gjonaj is standing in the back, and also spoke to the audience. Assemblyman Gjona is the first Albanian to be elected to the state legislature.


Senator Diaz Sr. is calling Senate Dempocratic Conference Leader Senator Andrea Stewart-Cousins (in red) to the mike.
