Cynthia Mota Sworn in By Man She Replaces

Allentown' first ever Latina Council person, Cynthia Mota, was sworn into office last night by the man she replaces on the board. Former Council Prez Michael D'Amore resigned once he himself was sworn in as a District Judge.

D'Amore forgot to wear his black dress for the occasion, which probably invalidates everything.

Dennis Pearson, who complained yesterday about being passed over, was among the first persons at the podium to offer his congratulations.
