Harlem’s District 9 City Council primary race promises to become one of the hottest election contests in the city. 

Flanked by former Congressman Charlie Rangel and local community leaders, Assemblymember Inez Dickens launched her bid for city council at the Ponty restaurant in Harlem on Thursday. 

Dickens represented the 9th district on the City Council from 2006 to 2016 before she was elected to the State Assembly. She is familiar with the ins and outs of the district, which encompasses Central Harlem, Morningside Heights, East Harlem, and parts of the Upper West Side.
