Candidate: Borough President / Manhattan Borough President

Calvin Sun (D)

Candidate Site

Calvin is a lifelong New Yorker, seasoned emergency physician, and proven frontline leader running for Manhattan Borough President. As an emergency room doctor in our City’s safety-net hospitals, Calvin has treated the most vulnerable New Yorkers, almost always while fighting for their lives. But in recent years, while Calvin served on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic, our elected leaders prioritized politics over saving lives, and the people suffered. To treat this poisoning of public heath, Calvin will deliver the same bold, honest leadership that New Yorkers already trust with their lives. Dr. Sun is running to heal this city.

Candidates for Manhattan Borough President: From left, State Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, City Council Member Keith Powers, and Dr. Calvin Sun are competing in the June 24 Democratic primary to succeed outgoing Borough President Mark Levine.
