One of the most pivotal events in recent history came with it–the triennial election for the Chamber of Commerce presidency.

By early morning, the area surrounding the Chamber of Commerce building was swarming with people.

Journalists crowded the entrance, cameras flashing as they recorded every moment. Some were even live- streaming, their feeds flooded with comments from viewers eager to witness history unfold.
