Lena Dunham, native New Yorker, has spoken.
The writer, director and producer of the HBO series “Girls”, took to Twitter on Thursday to announce who she supports in the hot race for the city’s third most important municipal office — New York City Comptroller.
I’m a native New Yorker & I like my leaders with grit, integrity & executive realness. That’s why I support @stringer2013 for Comptroller.

But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
