New York Gov. David Paterson will name Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand, an upstate
Democrat, to replace Hillary Clinton in the U.S. Senate, a Democratic
official with knowledge of the governor's decision told FOX News on Thursday
night.
Gillibrand, elected in 2006, represents the state's 20th congressional
district in the U.S. House of Representatives. She is the first Democrat to
represent the district since 1978 -- and the first female representative of
the district.
Paterson is scheduled to formally announce his pick Friday.
"I'm honored just to be considered," Gillibrand told FOX News earlier
Thursday.
But some New York City Democrats are skeptical of Gillibrand, who voted
against the financial rescue package last fall. And the National Rifle
Association has endorsed Gillibrand -- another cause for concern among some
Democrats.
In defense of the endorsement, Gillibrand told FOX News that she come from a
"hunting family" and "wants to support hunter's rights."
The choice of Gillibrand follows weeks of broad speculation over whom
Paterson would choose, the presumed frontrunners being state Attorney
General Andrew Cuomo and Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President
Kennedy.
Clinton resigned from the Senate this week to be sworn in as President
Obama.
Kennedy had campaigned vigorously for the position but withdrew her name
from consideration Wednesday, citing "personal reasons." That sparked a
flurry of media reports on other potential motives for her decision, rumors
that she described, through a spokesman, as untrue "mudslinging."
