Cuomo should not resign.

 TIME TO END PRECEDENT OF FORCED RESIGNATIONS

LET VOTERS DECIDE

The calls for the resignation of New York's governor Andrew Cuomo continue from mostly the democrats themselves. While Cuomo's policies have driven many New Yorkers to leave the state, resulted in the death of 15,000 nursing home patients, it is the accusations of sexual harassment that have created the most urgency for him to step down. Some of these accusations are concerning a formal dress code in the governors office and the feelings of discomfort. I personally don't think much of Cuomo, but I suspect that much of this has to do with the 2024 election and now the internal fighting over the stimulus money, which the governor will have a big say in the distribution.

Elected official need to refuse to resign for everything except convictions for felonies. The voters elected these people and let the voters decide at the polls. Cuomo is up for re-election in 2022. These calls may have assured his re-election, he may become the victim in this matter when it all settles down. 

As for the nursing home deaths, they are being investigated, this pattern of sending covid patients back to nursing homes was implemented by Cuomo, Wolf in Pennsylvania, Murphy in New Jersey and Witmer in Michigan. The question should be, did they collaborate in these decisions and did they understand that many seniors would die from their decision? Was this an intentional tactic to cut the states expenses in nursing homes by cutting down on the population?

As far as Cuomo, they are talking about impeaching him, they have that right and they will all have to vote on this. Lets see how that all works out, already some of his accusers are refusing to cooperate when it was revealed that this process would take months, rather than weeks. Lets see how brave everyone is when the votes are taken.

If Cuomo would resign it would likely bring about calls for resignations from many other governors and elected officials. They should all refuse and let it up to the voters to decide, not the political activists.
