Saturday , Washington Post And the Wall Street Journal Post two new testimonials regarding similar behavior on the part of the 63-year-old national team. Other former governor employees describe the work environment as “toxic.”

The sixty-year-old responded during a press conference by phone saying, “I will not resign due to allegations.” In a vacuum, he challenged the “credibility” of the accusations against him.

Wednesday, after the first salutation of the allegations, a Queens citizen said “deeply apologize” to those he managed to harm, while refuting any inappropriate gesture.

Andrea Stuart Cousins, the leader of the Democratic majority in the New York State Senate, joined several of her fellow local parliamentarians on Sunday in calling on Andrew Cuomo to step down.

Soon after, his House counterpart, Carl Hasty, followed suit, saying it was time for the governor to seriously question whether he (could) meet the expectations of New Yorkers under the circumstances.
