Anthony Weiner Considers New York City Council Run
News summary

Disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner is contemplating entering the New York City Council race for the seat currently held by term-limited Council Member Carlina Rivera. During his radio show, Weiner expressed a desire to serve the community, stating, 'I love doing this job on the radio, but I want to be of service.' Weiner's political career has been marred by scandals, including his resignation in 2011 due to a sexting scandal, and another attempt at a mayoral run in 2013 that was similarly derailed by inappropriate conduct. After serving 21 months in prison for sexting a minor, Weiner has been relatively quiet in the political arena, yet he feels motivated to address pressing issues like crime and homelessness in New York City. The upcoming Democratic primary is already competitive, with several candidates having raised substantial funds for their campaigns, posing a significant challenge for Weiner should he decide to run.
