Countdown to the November 4, 2008 Election

Rudolph W. Giuliani, a Republican, was a two-term mayor of New York City. In 1999, he created an exploratory committee for the 2000 U.S. Senate race, but he withdrew from the race on May 19, 2000, after announcing that he had been diagnosed in the early stages of prostate cancer and was seeking a divorce from his then-wife, actress Donna Hanover. Before being mayor, Giuliani, a lawyer, served in the office of the U.S. Attorney. He was named chief of the narcotics unit of the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York in 1973 and associate attorney general in the U.S. Department of Justice in 1981. He was the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1983 to 1989. Giuliani is now the chairman of Giuliani Partners, a consulting firm that he founded in 2002, and a partner in the law firm of Bracewell & Giuliani. His wife, Judith S. Giuliani, is a registered nurse and civic activist.
