Virginia Maloney, daughter of former East Side Congress Member Carolyn Maloney, announced Monday that she wants to continue her mother’s legacy with her own bid for elected office.
The younger Maloney revealed on Nov. 18 that she is joining next year’s increasingly crowded Democratic primary to replace term-limited City Council Member Keith Powers in the city’s legislature. Powers’ 4th District seat covers large swaths of Manhattan’s East Side, including Stuyvesant Town-Peter Cooper Village, Midtown East, and part of the Upper East Side.
