Gov. Kathy Hochul's campaign has now spent close to $1 million on this round of TV ads, which is only a drop in the bucket compared to the cash she has left on hand. She has raised more than $21 million so far.
But a bill, authored by Assemblywoman Amy Paulin, would offer Hochul a loophole. A candidate who has resigned from the office they are seeking, is indicted for a crime, or has a life-threatening illness would be able to withdraw their name from the ballot. The bill has yet to be introduced but Hochul has already signaled her support for it in an interview on Monday with WAMC radio host Alan Chartock.
Because the governor and lieutenant governor run in separate primaries, Suozzi said Hochul should now let voters decide. Hochul so far has given few hints on what her next move might be, saying she is considering all options, including appointing someone to fill the position for just the next seven months. In the interview on WAMC, Hochul said, "a lot of people have expressed interest" in the job. O'Donnell said he thinks Hochul should appoint someone in the interim and let the rest sort itself out in the primary.
