NEW YORK Former U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner (WEE-nur), who resigned over a sexting scandal in 2011, says hes weighing a run for New York City mayor this year.
The Democrat tells New York Times Magazine (http://nyti.ms/10Jnf1d ) its now or maybe never for me. But he acknowledges that its a long shot because some people just dont have room for a second narrative about me.
He says he doesnt know when hell decide on entering the race, and concedes hed be an underdog.
Weiner represented Queens and Brooklyn for more than a decade before resigning amid the scandal over his lewd online behavior.
The interview was posted online Wednesday and is scheduled to be published on Sunday.
His wife is Huma Abedin (HOO-muh AB-uh-deen), a longtime aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
