Governor Healey Sworn In As Massachusetts Chief Executive

Maura Healey was sworn in today as Massachusetts' 73rd governor.

She is the first woman ever elected governor in the Commonwealth and the first openly lesbian governor in the country.

She took the oath of office in the House chamber at the State House around 12:30 this afternoon, followed by the swearing-in of Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll. Tonight, there will be an inaugural celebration at Boston's TD Garden.
