On the 23 of January, 2009, David Patterson, Governer of New York, named Kirsten Gillibrand, 42, as the new Senator of New York, after Hilary Clinton. "I believe I have found the best candidate to become the next senator from the state of New York. She is dynamic, she is articulate, she is perceptive, she is outspoken," said Paterson at a news conference. She is a member of the Democratic Party. She was chosen after Caroline Kennedy, daughter of former President John F. Kennedy, withdrew from the race due to unspecified personal reasons, even though being the leading candidate. She was sworn in yesterday.
I think that she is a very good choice for the job, and she will fill the shoes left by former Senator Clinton.
