Half Of New York Voters Say Cuomo Shouldn't Resign, Poll Shows

Recommended Posts

More New Yorkers believe that Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has committed sexual harassment than not, but half of those surveyed say that he should not resign, according to a Siena College poll released on Monday.

Slightly more than a third of voters, 35 percent, said they believed the governor had committed sexual harassment, while 24 percent believed he had not, with the rest saying they were unsure, according to the poll, which was conducted in the second week of March.

Multiple women, including current and former aides, have accused Mr. Cuomo in the past few weeks of a range of inappropriate behavior, including sexual harassment and groping. The governor has repeatedly denied ever touching anyone inappropriately, and has apologized for comments he said may have made women feel uncomfortable.

In a survey of 805 registered New York State voters, 57 percent said they were satisfied with how Mr. Cuomo had addressed the allegations, while 32 percent said they were not. Fifty percent said he should not resign, while 35 percent said he should. Nearly half said they believed he could continue to do his job effectively as governor, with 34 percent saying he could not.

NY has 19,300,000 people and of those 13,555,547 are registered to vote. They asked 805 people or .00594% of registered voters. 

Ya, that sounds like a accurate poll.

The headline is a grabber.  1/2 of NYers?  LOL.  They probably polled NYC who is still mostly oblivious.

I was thinking the city and the Hudson Valley. Everything beyond that is wilderness to a lot of people.

IMHO - .00594% sounds like the amount of truth you might find in any story the NY Times reports on.
