ALBANY â Two more former aides to Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo came forward Saturday and accused him of sexual harassment.
The governor responded Sunday to the latest allegations lodged against him and reiterated his intention to stay in office despite them.
âIâm not going to resign because of allegations,â he said on a phone call with reporters Sunday. âThe premise of resigning because of allegations is actually anti-democratic.â
The governor said he was elected by the people of New York state, and the people must be the ones to decide if he should hold office or not.
When asked specifically about the latest sexual harassment allegations, the governor denied them.
