This quirk has been a key factor in Governor Andrew Cuomo’s being driven toward the left: In 2014, the WFP endorsed him for governor, but this year it nominated farther-left actress Cynthia Nixon as its candidate in the general election and backed her effort to defeat Cuomo in the Democratic primary. The WFP scored a big win in last month’s Democratic primary in New York when New York City public advocate Tish James won the primary for state attorney general.
