Anthony David Weiner (/ˈwiːnər/;[1] born September 4, 1964) is an American former politician who served as the U.S. representative for New York's 9th congressional district from 1999 until his resignation in 2011. A member of the Democratic Party, he consistently carried the district with at least 60% of the vote. Weiner resigned from Congress in June 2011 after it was revealed he sent sexually suggestive photos of himself to different women.
A two-time candidate for Mayor of New York City, Weiner finished second in the Democratic primary in 2005. He ran again in 2013, placing fifth in the Democratic primary.
In 2017, Weiner pled guilty to transferring obscene material to a minor and was sentenced to 21 months in prison.[2][3][4] He was also required to permanently register as a sex offender.[5] Weiner began serving his federal prison sentence the same year and was released in 2019.
