 Jessica Tisch and Emma Bloomberg |

When we saw Mayor Bloomberg's eldest daughter, Emma Bloomberg, last night at the New York Public Library's gala, we naturally asked her when and for whom she planned to vote today, Election Day. Ms. Bloomberg told the Sun she'd be up early to vote for her dad, the mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg, who is running for his third term. "I'm voting early because then I'm working subway stops to make sure everyone else does," Ms. Bloomberg said, specifying her territory as between Tribeca and Houston Street. In order to do so, she's taking half a day off as a vacation day; in the afternoon, she'll be back at work, the Robin Hood Foundation.
Next, naturally, we asked her what she was reading. "I just finished 'In the President's Secret Service,' which you should read," Ms. Bloomberg said, addressing the recommendation to a friend, Jessica Tisch, who has worked in the counterterrorism unit of the New York City Police Department. Next? "Today I downloaded Joyce Purnick's new book," Ms. Bloomberg said. That would be: "Mike Bloomberg: Money, Power, Politics." Guess it's always good to be informed about the candidate you're campaigning for.
