Chelsea Clinton’s mother-in-law mulls Hill bid

April 10, 2013

By BREANNA EDWARDS, POLITICO – Former Democratic U.S. Rep. Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky is considering a run to reclaim her old seat in Pennsylvania’s 13th Congressional district and this time she has a hefty political hand to play.

Margolies-Mezvinsky, if she decides to run, can probably count on the heavy political swing that comes with the Clinton family name, as her son Marc married Chelsea Clinton in 2010.

According to KYW Newsradio, which is based in Philadelphia, she has the support of major party leaders and is being encouraged to run by former President Bill Clinton.

“It is premature, because we have a Congressperson in office now, but it is true that I am talking about it with party leaders and family members,” Margolies-Mezvinsky told the station.

Democratic Rep. Allyson Schwartz, who earlier announced late last month her bid for Governor, is currently occupying the 13th Congressional district seat.
