New York City Council

Councilman G. Oliver Koppell was term-limited in 2013 and unable to run for another term, and as a result, Cohen entered the race to succeed him. After winning the primary, he was elected to a full term in November 2013. Cohen ran for Supreme Court Justice in the Bronx in November 2020, and resigned from the New York City Council, ending his term on December 31, 2020.[6]
