On Tuesday night, Hillary Clinton was in Brooklyn, claiming her party’s nomination dressed in a white coat by Lisa Perry, wife of hedge-fund manager Richard Perry. Meanwhile, Mayor Bill De Blasio of New York City, who’s seeking re-election in 2017, was in Manhattan at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, sporting a blue suit and red tie to honor Citigroup’s chief executive.
"I want to thank my friend Michael Corbat, whom I’ve had the joy of working with on many good causes, including affordable housing," De Blasio said.
