Andrew Cuomo officially handed in his resignation letter on Monday night, stepping down as New York’s governor. His resignation makes way for Kathy Hochul to be sworn in and become the state’s first woman in the position. “It has been my pleasure to serve with you both,” Cuomo wrote in the brief letter, which was addressed to the leaders of New York’s state assembly. Cuomo, a Democrat who was first elected governor in 2010, will formally end his term at 11:59 p.m. Monday, two weeks after announcing he would resign. Calls for him to step down had increased after a report concluded he had sexually harassed female employees.More Related News
