NEW YORK (WABC) After more than a decade of dominance in Albany, Gov. Andrew Cuomo s power seems to be hanging on by a thread.
The calls for Cuomo s resignation grow louder every day, and 121 members of the state Assembly and Senate have said publicly they believe Cuomo can no longer govern and should quit office now, according to a tally by The Associated Press.
The count includes 65 Democrats and 56 Republicans.
Cuomo s support in the state Senate was especially thin. Roughly two thirds of its members have called for the Democrat s resignation, including Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins.
A group of 59 Democratic state legislators on Thursday demanded Cuomo s resignation in a letter in the wake of the latest allegation, in which an aide to Cuomo claimed he groped her in the governor s residence.
