IOC changes rules, votes to award two games at once...
The IOC voted unanimously to award both Paris and Los Angeles the 2024 and 2028 summer Olympic Games. Each candidate City made a 45 minute presentation to 83 of 95 IOC members at a special session in Lausanne, Switzerland. The IOC will not determine the order of the cities that host. There will be a special agreement that both candidate cities will work out together in determining which city will go first. If the two chosen cities to host the next two summer games don't come to an agreement, then the IOC will then vote on either Los Angeles or Paris at the IOC session in Lima, Peru on Sept. 13. If the two cities come to an agreement the order will be announced on that same day.
