Governor Cuomo is likely to call a Special Election to replace former Speaker Sheldon Silver on April 19, 2016, the same day as the Presidential Primary.
He was first elected to the Assembly in 1976 and rose to key committee leadership positions. He represents the 65th Assembly District (previously numbered 62nd, 63rd and 64th), comprising much of Lower Manhattan, notably Wall Street and the former World Trade Center site.
On February 11, 1994, after Saul Weprin died from a stroke, Silver became the Speaker of the New York State Assembly. He was re-elected 11 times.
