With the increase in accusations of sexual harassment against him ... New York Governor Andrew Cuomo reiterates: I will not quit
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo reiterated on Sunday that he has no intention of resigning, despite the fact that two more of the defendants came forward over the weekend, bringing the total number of accused to five, the New York Post reported Sunday.
The governor held a press conference by phone and stated that Attorney General Letitia James must finish her investigation into the sexual assault allegations first before jumping to any conclusions.
"It's impossible to quit, let's do the prosecutor's investigation, let's do the results and then move on from there, but that also won't distract me," Cuomo said.
"We have to complete the budget in three weeks," he added.
"We have a lot of work to do, and a lot of work to be done in this case," Cuomo said, stressing, "This is not about me and the accusations are on me, the prosecutor can deal with that, and this is about doing people's work, and I think the months are." The next six will determine the future course of New York State. "
