MARTY MARKOWITZ: My Choice for Mayor is Christine Quinn
For eight years, I have known Christine Quinn as a coalition-building City Council Speaker, as a progressive and responsible legislator and as someone who always keeps her word.
Throughout Christine’s lifelong career of public service, she’s proven herself as an exemplary leader with the ability to get the job done, especially in her management of the City Council’s diverse range of opinions and backgrounds. And her record shows her clear commitment to improving the lives of New Yorkers in all five boroughs.
Christine Quinn’s long list of accomplishments make her uniquely qualified not just to be the next mayor of New York, but to be our first female mayor. Like I’ve always said, when you want a job done right, give it to a woman! And there is no woman — no man — no candidate out there — who will do a better job for New York City as mayor than Christine Quinn.
