Andrew Cuomo mounts comeback, launches campaign for NYC mayor years after resignation
- Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced his candidacy for New York City mayor on Saturday, marking his return to politics after a yearslong exile.
- Cuomo's resignation from the governor's office in 2021, following a report by the state attorney general and accusations from at least 11 women, led to his downfall and political hiatus.
- Cuomo launched his campaign with a video pitching his experience and moderate stances on issues like crime, aiming to address the city's perceived social and political turmoil.

- Despite early polling numbers and a significant campaign war chest, Cuomo faces challenges due to the sexual harassment allegations and questions regarding his administration's handling of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes, making his potential comeback uncertain.
