Hillary Clinton Supports Cuomo for NY Governor


cuomFormer Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is backing New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in his bid for a second term.

Clinton appeared Thursday at a Manhattan rally with the Democratic incumbent and his pick for lieutenant governor, Kathy Hochul.

Clinton says Cuomo is the “right leader at the right time.”

The rally was run by the Woman’s Equality Party, a political organization founded by Cuomo.

Clinton is considered the presumptive front-runner for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination if she decides to run. She lives in a New York City suburb.

Cuomo has also been touted as a potential presidential candidate but is unlikely to mount a bid if Clinton runs.

Cuomo faces Republican Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino in the Nov. 4 general election.
