US EditionAnthony Weiner Finishes Fourth in Manhattan Council Primary
- Anthony Weiner, a former U.S. Representative, finished in a distant fourth place in the June 2025 Democratic primary for Manhattan's 2nd City Council district.
- Weiner's bid followed multiple sexting scandals, including one in 2016 involving a 15-year-old, which led to his guilty plea and prison sentence.
- During the campaign, Weiner acknowledged his past mistakes and struggled publicly with how to address them while pleading for another chance from voters.
- As of Tuesday night, Weiner held just over 10% of the vote share, trailing well behind front-runner Harvey Epstein, who approached 40%.
- Weiner’s defeat in the primary, combined with his prior conviction and prison term, indicated a significant barrier to his political comeback in New York City.
