| Hillary Lawyer Reshma Saujani to Challenge Maloney? |
| 2009-10-22 |
| Multiple sources have said former HillPac lawyer Reshma Saujani is considering a primary challenge to Representative Carolyn Maloney, the Manhattan Democrat who threatened to run for Senate earlier this year. Saujani has a compelling biography for a candidate. She's the daughter of immigrants who fled from violence in Uganda, and has degrees from Harvard and Yale. Saujani reportedly interned in the White House at the same time as Monica Lewinsky. By the age of 28, Saujani had established herself politically as an effective fund-raiser for John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaign. At the time, she was quoted as saying, "I'll be into active politics myself in a few years. I hope to become a Senator someday." |
