(Vanity) If Cuomo resigns, what is the NY law governing succession?

Posted on 08/03/2021 2:53:07 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

Personally, I hope for a long, bruising fight so Cuomo can land a few body blows against his fellow 'Rats...but if he steps down, who's in charge and how big a commie are they?

The Lieutenant Governor is Kathy Hochul. She is from Buffalo, and she would become, I believe, the first New York Governor from Buffalo since Grover Cleveland. He wasn’t bad (for a Democrat), when she was here, but, as she has climbed the power structure, she has become like the rest of them.

How much sexual harassment or assault does it take for a Democrat to resign? My guess is that it’s more than Cuomo has done. It clearly takes more than Biden has done, even with the pedo angle. Some ambitious reporter should ask Tara Reade what she thinks about Biden saying Cuomo should resign.

Cuomo isn’t stepping down. He will announce that he will not run in 2022. And the masses will laud his courage.

If Cuomo resigns, it will be...

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

by the NY attorney who wanted him out of the way so that she could run and more easily take over the governor’s job. That was her ambition, and most of her reason for going after the governor. Otherwise, she would not have gone after one from her own party.

It would also be ‘mission accomplished’ for her and democrats in another issue: TRUMP.

She went after Cuomo, with the intent of showing that her (and democrats’) motivation for going after Trump were not purely political. IOW, she wanted people to think that going after Trump was not purely political, so, what better way to show that than going after one of ‘their own’?

The Lieutenant Governor replaces the Governor. It happened when Eliot Spitzer resigned over prostitution charges, and Lt. Gov. David Paterson took his place. Paterson ended up withdrawing from the Governor’s election due to being accused of sexual misbehavior, and corruption, and served as Governor until December 31st, 2010, when Cuomo was sworn in for his first term.

When Democrat New York Governor Eliot Spitzer resigned in 2008 after getting caught wiring money to offshore accounts to pay for prostitutes, Lieutenant Governor David Paterson stepped in.

He’d probably win again, he’s a Cuomo in NY.

Someone worse and he has already been gotten to. For him to keep his job after this then he will be getting help by the top. Anyone heard bidens remarks. If he is backing him then he will survive this. No matter the evidence, unless they have video.
