One who did not, Denvers mayor, Michael Hancock, issued an apology on Wednesday. The empty chair, silence that takes your breath away. I made my decision as a husband and father, he said, and for those who are angry and disappointed, I humbly ask you to forgive decisions that are born of my heart and not my head. Having asked city staff and residents to avoid holiday travel, Hancock flew to Mississippi to spend the holiday with his wife and youngest daughter. Our local shops have curbside pickup options and need our support,' Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear wrote in a tweet on Friday.
Hancock had to choose between his wife and his daughter.
