NYC-Mayor:

Andrew Cuomo might be under indictment by primary day-remember the mess during COVID-19 with New York's nursing homes?

Something tells me that reference for prosecution by House Republicans and the Trump Justice Department is not necessarily a deathblow in a Democratic primary in NY, or in most other places. Nor will it elect Curtis Sliwa or Eric Adams in the general.

Of course, there's still time to consolidate around someone else. But that's running shorter and shorter....

Given WHY Cuomo would be indicted, it easily could be a death blow-unlike most people Trump is targeting, the nursing home scandal could have easily had him indicted on Manslaughter or Depraved Indifference Murder.

I seriously doubt its going to affect the primary much. People here didn't much care about this issue when it first came up. Unless they have him in a black hole in El Salvador, it won't move the needle much.

"Unless they have him in a black hole in El Salvador, it won't move the needle much." Don't give them any ideas....

I doubt an indictment would happen that quickly.
