Disgraced Former Governor Andrew Cuomo Is Running for Mayor

He returned. Does he think so.

Saturday disgraced the former governor of New York Andrew kuom He announced that he was running for the mayor, three years since he resigned from a terrible investigation of messages that he was sexually pursuing at least 11 women. What a competition: New York voters can decide which scandal set they prefer, sexy predators kuoma or Mayor Eric Adams for corruption.

Of course, we will have more choice than this, thanks to the voting system in New York, which allows voters to select the top five candidates in ranking. In addition, kuoma is not invincible. Although in recent polls he heads a pack of candidates, it can say more about the name and unpopularity of Adams than for his advantages. But it has an inner path to a rich and powerful New York – Super Pac strives to raise at least $ 15 million for it – and it will make it more important to make the progressive New Turks unite the contender or two.

Brad Lander, the progressive controller of the city, is currently ranked after Kuom; Scott Stringer, a former comptroller. Progressives, including state senators Jessica Ramos, Zelnoor Miri and Democratic Socialist Assembly Zohran Mamdani, also in the race. And here is Adams, who says he does not go anywhere. Donald Trump assisted him by instructed by the South New York district to abandon the allegations against the mayor of the Suger.

In a video in which he announced his candidacy, Kuoma promised to withstand Donald Trump. But he also sounded Trump about the “migrant inflow” and “casual violence”.

The former governor has a lot in common with Trump, in particular his managerial style and his disrespect, at best for women. “During the decade, as the governor, he often pressed his rogue paternalism, while his main assistants neglected those who challenged him,” – New York journal Rebecca Triser wrote In March 2021, he spent a stunning $ 25 million in New York taxpayers’ funds to fight his many accusers, some of which refused their own lawsuits because Kuoma could easily cancel them. Lindsay Boylan, the first prosecutor Kuom, did not sue him, but says she spent $ 1.5 million for court charges because in other cases. “Physical and mental expenses are not subject,” – she wrote in Fair of vanity.

Kuoma worked with Republicans and conservative Democrats to maintain control over GoP legislation for many years. He appointed the judge who approved the cards in Congress, which in 2024 handed over to the House of Representatives. And though he first seemed important errors When it comes to residents of the nursing home, demanding from the houses to take patients at COVID-19th, when New York hospitals were unable to handle them, and then humiliate their death.

In June, which came quickly, Kuoma makes a relatively late entrance to the race, given that so many other applicants for Adams appeared. Jasmin Flu, Cadirer of the New York Labor Party, explained that it was intentionally “because he wants to cut the window for us to remind voters of all these scandals.”

WFP and other progressive groups launched #Hellnocuomo. They also work with existing progressive candidates so as not to bring anyone out of the race, but for a conscious, obvious campaign of cooperation, as voters can choose up to five candidates. “We did not adapt quickly enough to vote for the choice (in 2021),” the fluper admits. “We are talking to the progressive association – and make sure no one takes Kuom and Adams” in their highest level. A coalition known as Dreamnyc – “Do not rank Eric Andrew for the mayor” – pushes the same strategy.

Back in 2021, Kuoma accused James Prosecutor General of his troubles because she investigated both the nursing home and complaints about sexual harassment. He called her conclusions “politically motivated” and claimed that he would be punished for changing the “temper” and accusations that misunderstood their “loving” style in New York for persecution. New York What?

“Did I make mistakes, some painfully? Definitely and I believe I learned from them and that I am the best man and hope every day “, – says kuoma In the video of his company. His detractors do not believe him.

In this video, complete with the recurrent, thought-thinking piano for the piano Ken Burns, emphasizes his work, fighting the spread of Covid-19, which was not necessarily the best step, given the obsolete scandal. He also draws himself as a brutal crime and is ready to resist the liberals who want to strengthen the reins in the police. “Now we have to go back to the fight against crimes,” he says of the city who has seen the crime level. But despite the data: “The city just feels a threat, goes out of control and in crisis,” he said. But perhaps it is because he just moved here from the Vestchester.

Gripper notes that the Kuoma administration has reduced the number of psychiatric beds in the city, contributing to the crisis of homeless mentally ill New York that it indicates. He also neglected MTA, worsening the subway conditions.

Kuoma will hurt Adams with the support of the black community, where his connections are long. Former State Comptroller Carl Makkal, once the opponent, supported Kuom last week. “We don’t need a Mr. Nice guy,” said Richie Torres, Democrat Bronx Afro-Latin (and former Bernie Sanders), who now supports Kuoma. “We need Mr. Hard guy,” he said The New York Times.

Many of the New York women who experience a particularly popular kuoma strength are likely to disagree.

The #Hellnocuomo coalition ralled near the Carpento Union, where Kuoma officially launched its campaign. Some union members have reportedly appeared not knowing that this event is Cuomo, but it can receive significant trade unions support. Unfortunately, New York unions often bet on the one they think to win, not those whom they really think will help their members.

“Andrew Kuom has spent the last four years, tormenting the women he pursued in our judicial system, and all the taxpayers. Through twenty-five million taxpayers he wants to take over the power he clearly did not deserve,” said Eric Vladimir, co-founded. We will see if the New York unions take it seriously.
