Related: About this forumdeBlasio pays the $9.00
http://blogs.wsj.com/metropolis/2013/12/31/before-becoming-mayor-de-blasio-needs-to-turn-over-9/New York City Clerk Michael McSweeney is making an important house call Tuesday night he is traveling to Mayor-elect Bill de Blasios Brooklyn home in pursuit of $9.
To become the citys 109th mayor at the stroke of midnight, Mr. de Blasio is legally required to sign the formal oath of office form and pay the accompanying $9 registration fee. The mayor will also be asked to sign the official register of the city clerk; theres also a second commemorative book that is traditionally signed and kept at City Hall.

6. Right wing press will hound NYC mayor Bill de Blasio just like they did with Pres. Obama. As a result, he will enter 2015 with low ratings.

They (the NY Post/WSJ/Daily Caller, other right wingers) are going to hound the mayor and his family over EVERY minute thing and make their lived hell for the next four years.
