Another candidate says she wants to represent the 19th Congressional District. Luisa Parker is launching an independent bid for the seat now held by Republican John Faso of Kinderhook. Parker's website says she was brought to New York City "at 14 months of age" by her Cuban-born mother. Now she's a mother of two and has "undergraduate degrees at Pennsylvania State University," and "a graduate degree from the New School for Social Research." She lives in Sullivan County, though her website does not say when she moved there, and works as the Prevention Services Coordinator for Catholic Charities Prevention Services of Orange and Sullivan. "I do not possess a background in politics - so no smooth talking, soft-selling, glossy-looking individual here folks," says her website, which stresses education is her most-important issue. There are now seven Democrats, one Republican, and two independent candidates running for the 19th CD seat.
