Cuomo’s resignation opens the potentially wide-open governor’s race next year

Atop that list are Hochul and New York State Attorney General Letitia James, whose report corroborating the sexual harassment allegations against Cuomo ultimately led to his resignation. Other Democrats thought to be considering runs are state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli, Mayor de Blasio, Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Queens), New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone, and — although it’s probably a long shot — Cuomo himself.
