Effective in 2 weeks. His replacement is Kathy Hochul...don't know enough about her to be concerned or not.

Did he come on after his lawyer ? I was watching the lawyer and turned it off. Turned TV back on 1/2 hour - 45 minutes later and he was resigning.
Did the lawyer then turn the news conference over to Cuomo to resign ? What a waste of time giving the lawyer air time if at the end he was going to resign.

Good. Any person with credible claims of sexual harrassment against them shouldn't be a governor. (Or a senator, or Supreme Court justice, or president.)

When I walked in the door (I leave the TV on for the dog when I am gone) he was taking "responsibility" and then resigned. I also think the writing was on the wall when his top advisor resigned yesterday |

"Hubris, arrogance, is just one step ahead of loss of integrity, because if you think you're better than other people, you know more, then you're going to think, as many leaders have, that the rules don't apply to them - so they lose their integrity." ~ Charles Koch

Buh bye Andrew - signed, a far leftie who tries not to be a hypocrite. Unlike some I can think of who sit in their pol chairs waiting their allegations out.

I knew him and his family in the early 90s. They were all a piece of poo poo. Entitled poo poo. I am glad he is gone.

But really this IS about protecting women, or at least it should be. The republicans are hypocrites in every sense of the word. At least democrats are holding men accountable. |

It's already been drug out too long and we still have another 2 weeks of garbage. State promised schools they would be reopening guidance and then last Thursday said "never mind, schools and local governments can figure it out". The state fair is in my county. My county executive has been in talks with the state about some covid restrictions at the fair. Today my county executive took matters into his own hands and made masks required inside buildings at the fair. State government is too busy worrying about covering his butt to actually govern. I'm totally fine with them saying that local governments and schools can decide...just not with them keeping the schools on the hook for the last month saying guidance is coming. Our schools could have been spending the last month making plans instead of being in limbo. |

I am glad that he resigned, and glad that he waited for the investigation to conclude before resigning. Now there is evidence, and NY will have a female governor. Good riddance.
