New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced his resignation on Tuesday, bowing to pressure to leave office or face impeachment in the wake of multiple sexual-harassment allegations.
Cuomo said in an appearance in New York City that he would leave office in 14 days and Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul would take over, becoming New York’s first female governor. Cuomo maintained that he didn’t harass anyone but was “thoughtless” in the way he spoke to and touched women on his staff.
“In my mind, I’ve never crossed the line with anyone,” said Cuomo, 63. “But I didn’t realize the extent to which the line has been redrawn.”
