Another candidate threw her hat in the ring for New York's 33rd Assembly Seat on Thursday.
Nantasha Williams announced she's running to fill the seat previously held by Assemblywoman Barbara Clark.
Clark died in February of natural causes.
Williams previously served as executive director of the New York State Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic and Asian Legislative Caucus, and as chief of staff to Assemblywoman Diana Richardson.
The 28-year-old Cambria Heights native says there are a number of issues she wants to address in Albany.
“I think you need to consider a lot of these quality of life issues, a lot of these issues with education and criminal justice reform and housing,” Williams said. “We really need to consider those issues when you go to the polls. And it's complicated.”
Williams is expected to face a crowded field of candidates, including community advocate Roy Paul.
The primary is September 13th.
