Representative Charles B. Rangel, whose personal finances are the focus of a Congressional ethics investigation, is suddenly facing another problem: one of his former aides is running against him in next year’s election. The aide, Vince Morgan, now a bank executive, announced this week that he was planning to run against the congressman in the Democratic primary.
About Vince Morgan
Candidate for the US House of Representatives. New York's 15th Congressional District including East Harlem, Harlem, Washington Heights, Inwood & the Upper Westside.
Vince Morgan is a beacon of light in New York politics. He is a rarity today, a successful community banker and family man, who is standing up to challenge the political status quo that has failed to deliver for the majority of people that live in the 15th Congressional district of New York. He says, “I simply grew frustrated with the current divisions in our community and want more people involved in the decision making process of how to allocate scarce resources and set priorities for the community. By working together everyone moves forward.”
“I am running for Congress to lead and to restore faith in our government with honesty and integrity. I will work hard to bring our wonderfully diverse district together around common goals. I want to create opportunities for everyone and bring hope to those who feel they have been left behind. The time for new ideas and renewed energy is long overdue. New representation is needed that unites us all. I will do the work required to move our district forward. Job creation, education investment and smart development are my priorities.” Vincent Morgan
