Jenifer Rajkumar drops comptroller bid to challenge Jumaane Williams for Public Advocate - QNS
Briefly

Assembly Member Jenifer Rajkumar has declared her candidacy for New York City Public Advocate, stepping back from a previous run for Comptroller. Engaging with residents across the city, she asserts that New Yorkers are tired of leadership focused on extreme activist agendas instead of pressing issues. With a significant financial advantage, Rajkumar is poised to qualify for public matching funds. A civil rights attorney, she has successfully led initiatives impacting local communities, including mental health and workers' rights, and aims to address the cost-of-living crisis and public safety in New York City.
I am stepping up to be the Public Advocate for the City I love. Our City is facing a crisis of governance and can no longer afford the out-of-touch agenda of extremists like Jumaane Williams. Instead, we need proven fighters who will focus on the issues that all New Yorkers care about. From attacking the cost-of-living crisis to restoring public safety on our streets and on our subways, I'm excited to bring bold, results-driven leadership to our City.
After engaging with thousands of residents across all five boroughs, Rajkumar stated she believes it is 'crystal clear' that New Yorkers are fed up with leaders prioritizing extreme activist agendas over the everyday issues that matter most.
