Miranda's coming for the Big Apple!

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon announced today that she's running for governor of New York! "“I love New York and today I’m announcing my candidacy for governor," she tweeted, along with a link to her campaign video.

In the clip, the TV actress explained why she wants to go into politics.

"New York is my home. I’ve never lived anywhere else. When I grew up here, it was just my mom and me in a one-bedroom 5th floor walk-up. New York is where I was raised and where I’m raising my kids. I’m a proud public school graduate, and a prouder public school parent," she said in the voice over, noting that children today didn't have the same chances.

"Our leaders are letting us down. We are now the most unequal state in the entire country with both incredible wealth and extreme poverty. How did we let this happen? I love New York. I’ve never wanted to live anywhere else. But something has to change. We want our government to work again on health care, ending mass incarceration, fixing our broken subway. We are sick of politicians who care more about headlines and power than they do about us," she added.

If she wins, she would become the first female governor in New York history!
