A bill that would allow Democrats in Albany to remove former New York Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin from the June primary ballot was introduced in the state Senate late Friday night.
Benjamin resigned in April after he surrendered to authorities to face campaign finance fraud-related charges in connection with a past campaign.
The ballot issue comes as Gov. Kathy Hochul grapples with limited options to remove her indicted running mate from the June 28 Democratic primary ballot. Even though Benjamin resigned his position, current law does not allow him to leave the ballot unless he dies, runs for another office or moves outside New York state.
