Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has told donors that he's not leaving the state for Florida, despite speculation about his future. In a letter sent to his supporters, Cuomo expressed confidence in his ability to win re-election and maintain his position as governor.
Cuomo's comments come amid growing rumors that he may run for mayor of New York City or leave politics altogether. However, sources close to the former governor say he has no intention of leaving office anytime soon.
According to the letter, Cuomo is committed to seeing out his current term and continuing to serve the people of New York. He also expressed appreciation for the support of his donors and promised to work tirelessly on their behalf.
The move is seen as a bid to quiet speculation about his future and reassure supporters that he remains committed to public service. It comes ahead of potential moves by Cuomo's Democratic rivals in the state legislature to challenge him from within or push for an early special election.
Cuomo's decision not to rule out another run for office has sparked both excitement and skepticism among Democrats, who are still trying to regroup after his historic loss in 2020. Some have expressed concerns that he may try to muscle his way back into power, while others see it as a sign that the former governor is willing to listen to criticism and adapt to changing circumstances.
Regardless of Cuomo's intentions, one thing is clear: his decision not to leave New York has sent shockwaves through the state's Democratic establishment. As the party looks to rebuild and refocus its efforts in 2026, Cuomo's move will be closely watched by national Democrats and pundits alike.
In a sign that Cuomo remains committed to politics, sources close to him say he is already laying the groundwork for potential future bids. He has been meeting with key allies and strategists, and his team is reportedly exploring options for how to navigate the 2026 primary landscape.
For now, however, Cuomo is focused on finishing out his current term and delivering on his campaign promises. As one insider put it, "He's not going anywhere anytime soon."
