Andrew Cuomo’s entry into the New York City mayoral race has reignited debate over his tenure as governor, with critics blaming him for the city’s struggles with homelessness, transit issues, and housing. Opponents argue his battles with former Mayor Bill de Blasio and funding cuts worsened conditions he now promises to fix.
Cuomo’s campaign highlights his infrastructure achievements and leadership experience, while rivals frame him as power-hungry and responsible for past crises.
With the Democratic primary looming, the race is shaping up as a referendum on his legacy.
