1) Kristen E. Gillibrand She is a democrat that is a part of many committees such as the Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, Subcommittee on Strategic Forces, Committee on Environment and Public Works. She filled the spot that was left void by Hilary Rodham-Clinton. I respect the hard work that she puts into fighting for gay rights. But I feel that she isn't a pretty good representative for my district though she could be better if she tried more to reach into specific communities instead of always going after bigger issues. My major concern with her is her lack of concern about health care and homelessness being a major issue. I personally am unsure if I would vote for her next time, because I feel that she’s riding the popularity train rather than working her hardest on key issues within my community.

2) Charles E. Schumer He is a democrat though not in my district. He has recieved major donations from bank exectutive's from CitiGroup, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan Chase. I would vote for him, because I feel that he is trying to make my community safer. Unlike Kristen Gillibrand he tries to target problem communities more. Each year he visits each of New Yorks 62 countys to try to understand hard-hitting issues and try to plan solutions. Charles is very good at making sure that his accomplishments are known about. He is a part of the Subcommittee on Social Security, Pensions and Family Policy, Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, and the Subcommittee on Housing.

3) Edolphus’s Towns He is a democrat in my District. He also is a part of the Subcommittee on government organization, efficiency and financial mangement. He is an advocate for criminal justice reform though he doesn't actively seek to better the conditions themselves. I wouldn't vote for him, because even though he represents my district i don't feel he is the best candidate. He fails to be as attentive to middle and lower class citizens as he is with upper class citizens. He fails to realize who makes up the comunities and vote for him.

4) Velmanette Montgomery She is a Democrat that is Chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Children and Families. As well as Chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Social Services. She is also an advocate for criminal justice reform. Velmanette has worked to reform not only the juvenile justice league but the social care system as well. I feel that I would be unsure about voting for her next election, because when I asked around people’s views about her were shaky. Even on her website major accomplishments weren't listed just mainly things she has started working towards which leads me to think that she must have little to no major accomplishments thoughout her term thus far.

5) Annette Robinson She is a democrat that currently resides on the Children and Families, Housing and Small Business committees. I like the fact that she is trying to target youth like Obama did when he first ran. Although she tries to portray herself as a hardworking representative of the people I am yet to see evidence of such. Much like Velmanette Montgomery her website lacks actual facts about her accomplishments.

6) Albert Vann He is a democrat that is Chair of the committee on community development. I would definitly vote for him, beacause their is alot of evidence that he is actually working for my community and makings changes for the better. Unlike Kristen E. Gillibrand he is popular, because of the hardwork and dedication that he puts into every project that he starts. He is constantly and consitently working hard on ways to better my community. For instance in 1982 he filed a lawsuit against the state legislature that greatly incresed minority representation on both the federal and state levels. Which in turn led to six minority assembly districts, and three minority state senatorial districts being created.
