New York Times: “Mr. Weiner, a former Democratic congressman, is in search of a public reset. His career and personal life imploded after he admitted to sending sexually explicit photos of himself to women, and was eventually convicted after he repeated the behavior with a 15-year-old girl.”
“Now, after a year and a half in prison, and much longer in public exile, Mr.
Weiner is weighing a political comeback. He has been talking to constituents and says he may try to run in a Democratic primary for the New York City Council, where he served in the 1990s before being elected to Congress in 1998.”
