New York Governor Andrew Cuomo Says He "Never Touched Anyone Inappropriately"

Andrew Cuomo, facing sexual harassment allegations, said he "never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances."

New York governor Andrew Cuomo denied multiple allegations of sexual harassment Tuesday, saying he "never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances." "That is just not who I am. And that's not who I have ever been," he said in a television address, adding that he had published a response to the accusations on his website. Cuomo spoke after the release of an explosive report by the New York attorney general's office that prompted immediate calls for his resignation. He said he had a life-long habit of kissing and touching people as a gesture of warmth and friendship, often in public.
