John Sweeney, R-N.Y. Three years later, she succeeded former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to represent New York in the Senate. The Democrat is up for re-election in 2018 and is considered a possible presidential contender in 2020. She’s been a leading voice in the national debate over how to confront sexual assault and harassment. (AP Photo/Jim McKnight, File)
