He is the first Asian American elected to a citywide or statewide position in New York.  Asian-American residents account for about 35% of the population in the district and about 20% of voters in the Democratic primary.
11/6/01 Associated Press: "A New Era in City Government"
    A Taiwan-born immigrant made political history Tuesday,
becoming the first Asian-American to win a major elective office in the city.
    John C. Liu, 34, a Democrat from Queens, won a City Council seat and the opportunity to become, he said, "a direct voice for Asian-Americans at City Hall."
    "We made history tonight," Liu declared in his victory speech. "We are in a new era, where all the people of New York City will finally have equal representation."
    Liu immigrated to Queens at the age of 5, attended public schools, and studied physics at the State University of New York in Binghamton.
    "I do realize that I am breaking a barrier," Liu said on Election Day, while shaking hands with voters outside a Flushing polling station.  "There will be very high expectations, a lot of responsibilities to fulfill, and I'm ready for it."
    He concentrated on appealing to all voters during his campaign. "There is no Puerto Rican or Chinese or Italian way to pick up the garbage or pick up the snow," Liu said in his victory speech. "The issues facing this district affect us all, and we will solve these issues together."
    Liu works as a manager at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and is married. His
first child, he noted with pride, was celebrating his first birthday on Election Day.
