Share September 6, 2010 6:34 p.m. EST Topics: government, politics, public officials, primary, election, United States Kris Alingod - AHN News Contributor Manhattan, NY, United States (AHN) - Manhattan voters want Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) to either resign or end his re-election campaign, according to a New York Times poll. The 20-term congressman is favored to win in next week's Democratic primary against five other challengers, including one who has received the endorsement of the newspaper. Twenty-four percent of Manhattan voters want Rangel to step down, the poll said. Forty-six percent think he should not seek another term. Only 18 percent hold a favorable view of the lawmaker, but many, 23 percent, are undecided about whether they should think positively or negatively of Rangel. Twenty-seven percent say they haven't heard enough about the congressman to form an opinion. Rangel is preparing for a trial before the House ethics committee on 13 charges, including his use of four rent-stabilized apartments, faillure to report income from property in the Dominican Republicand, and using congressional resources including the House letterhead to solicit donatoins and conduct work for a school named after him. The congressman, who earlier this year was forced to resign as chair of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee because of the ethics allegations, faces off with his Democratic rivals in next Tuesday's primary. The 80-year-old lawmaker had been facing calls to resign his chairmanship since reports in 2008 accused him of using congressional letterhead to solicit businesses and foundations for donations to the Rangel Center at City College in New York. He later came under fire for failing to disclose income from a villa in the Dominican Republic and his use of four rent- controlled apartments, including one for campaign work, in violation of rules allowing only the use of one for residential purposes. The Times released its poll just as it endorsed Joyce Johnson, former chief executive of Black Equity Alliance, a non-profit. Johnson is "struggling" in the primary race against Rangel and four other Democrats, the Times said, but she "has been a strong advocate for women’s rights and civil rights for many years." State Assemblyman Adam Clayton Powell IV has the biggest name in the race, according to the newspaper, but he "has done little in Albany, even by Albany’s do-little standards." The contender is the son of former Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, the first black member of the New York City Council and first African-American congressman until he lost his re-election campaign to Rangel in 1970. The others challenging Rangel in the primary are Vince Morgan, a community banker who founded Harlem NOW and previously served as campaign staff for Rangel in 2001, and perennial candidates Jonathan Tasini and Ruben Vargas. The primary is set for next Tuesday.
