New York’s first female governor, Kathy Hochul, is set to take office on Tuesday, Aug. 24, at the stroke of midnight.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s resignation from office will be effective at 11:59 p.m. Monday, Aug. 23, Hochul’s office said Tuesday.
Details of how the power transfer will take place weren’t immediately available, but Hochul, now the state’s lieutenant governor, is expected to make a public address sometime Tuesday, according to a spokesperson, Haley Viccaro.

Let’s have a party. We have someone new to ridicule.
SSDD.

How about, drag the one out in cuffs.

Done.
5 minutes.
Cuomo gets to grope her on the way out the door...

They have to give Cuomo time to move the women locked in the Basement
How big is the rag doll?
Anyone seen the actual letter of resignation yet? What if Cuomo decides not to resign and the Speaker elects not to restart impeachment proceedings?
What are you, some sort of a freak?! ;^)

"She is in WAY over her head in that position. I can almost hear the train wreck now."
Well, he's already pushed it back an extra week, I wouldn't put it past him to try to hold on after 9/1 - by then his resignation headline will be old news. Think Ralph Northam.
