TODD GLORIA MAKES HISTORY AS SAN DIEGO'S FIRST LGBTQ+ MAYOR

"Democrat Todd Gloria-- 'the son of a hotel maid and a gardener' -- made history Thursday as he was sworn in as the 37th mayor of the City of San Diego.

Promptly at 10 a.m. -- via a very pandemic-style, virtual inauguration ceremony before the San Diego City Council -- Gloria became the first-ever person of color and member of the LGBTQ community to hold the city's highest leadership position."
