The unravelling of Andrew Cuomo After a rapid ascent, the New York governor now stands accused of sexual harassment and understating the Covid death toll in state nursing homes.
A billboard urging Cuomo to resign in Albany, New York. Last spring, Andrew Cuomo, the domineering 63-year-old governor of New York currently serving his third term, was hailed as one of the heroes of the pandemic, as “America’s governor”, he was inspiring people to declare themselves “Cuomosexuals”. True, he did delay a shelter-in-place order when news of the virus in New York first hit; his political foe, New York City mayor Bill de Blasio, wanted to impose one in mid-March, but Cuomo said that fear and panic were bigger problems than the virus. Cuomo is ultimately responsible for executing the state’s laws (not to mention implementing executive orders and setting up the state budget), and so New York stayed open longer than it should have.

Nate Silver s data site FiveThirtyEight implemented a Trump Score for members of Congress almost immediately after President Donald Trump took office to track how often lawmakers voted with him, but it was dinged for not enacting a similar Biden Score for the new administration and Democratic Congress.
That is about to change, FiveThirtyEight said on Wednesday, saying the delay in a feature measuring lawmaker loyalty to President Biden was due to adding new features. We’re planning to launch soon a similar tracker that updates how often every member of the House and Senate votes with or against the president, and we’re adding new features that take some time to build, a spokesman told Fox.
