On Tuesday, Cuomo announced that he is resigning. He said, "Given the circumstances, the best way I can help now is if I step aside and let government get back to government, and therefore that is what I'll do, because I work for you, and doing the right thing, is doing the right thing for you."
He really had no choice. It was either resign or be impeached and removed -- and resignation was obviously the better choice.
Democrats had no choice either. After the ruckus they raised over the sexual aberrations of Donald Trump and Brett Kavanaugh, it would have been hypocritical to then excuse the sexual harassment committed by Cuomo.
Cuomo's resignation will be effective in two weeks. At that time, Democratic Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul will be sworn in as the new governor of the state of New York. She will be the first female governor of New York.
