Global Beat: The annual Global Beat party sponsored by Devex, the U.N. Foundation and Foreign Affairs magazine celebrated with Michael Kelly, who plays presidential henchman Doug Stamper in Netf lix’s “House of Cards,” and our favorite local chef and activist, José Andrés. Kelly still likes to remind us that he is far from the evil character he plays on television. Swipe the Vote: Rock The Vote? Tinder? I.J. Ali Stagnitta and Hannah Stempler

Review? The trio of sponsors made for fun & games at their rooftop party. Rock the Vote’s

Kiki Burger told us they mixed the dating app Tinder’s signature swiping feature with the 2016 field to test a different compatibility. “Based on if you swiped right or left on the issue, you got matched with the candidate. You could see where you align on the issue, so that was really fun.” What we really want to know is who got matched with The Donald? Rock the Vote also partnered on PSAs with Kendall Jenner, Burger said. “She’s been a big supporter of ours, which is great because she’s only 20 and this will be her first time voting in the presidential election.”
