Schumer Says Inauguration Giveaway Isn't Done Yet!

Prereqs for Inauguration Tickets: A Web Form and a Dream Were you one of the 150,000 New Yorkers who came up on the short end of the stick in the statewide lottery drawing to determine who would get tickets to the inauguration next week? Well, Senator Schumer is giving you a second chance. Schumer is giving out another 100 tickets to President-elect Obama's swearing in on the 20th. Thus far, 128 winners have been selected from the city and another 91 from the surrounding areas—including one adorable 4-year-old girl. And for everyone who still can't find a way down to DC to celebrate in all of the festivities, we're still crossing our fingers for Central Park Jumbotrons.
