more candidate speculation, part II

NY Daily News drops a new name, Janele Hyer-Spencer. Hyer-Spencer is a lawyer, fomer Vinny Gentile staff chief, and Democratic candidate for the 60th Assembly District in 2004.

Hyer-Spencer has two websites, hyerspencer.org and janele.com (both pointing to the latter). Curiously she is the only potential candidate with a campaign site, although the site only lists her as an advocate and activist and does not mention any pontential candidacies. Possibly more interesting is that should Gentile and Hyer-Spencer announce their plans to run for this seat, it would make for an interesting primary. Hyer-Spencer resigned as Staff Chief to Gentile "citing a series of policy and political clashes, including her opposition to Gentile's controversial double-parking legislation."
