If Gov. Cuomo Leaves Office, Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul Would Be Next, And Make History
August 4, 20212:15 PM ET
Should Cuomo be impeached or choose to resign, New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul would be next in line and would become the state's first woman to hold the position.
Hochul first leaped to the national stage in 2011 when she ran in a special election for a House of Representatives seat in one of New York's most conservative districts. She served one term before Cuomo selected her to be his running mate. They were sworn in in 2015.
In a statement on Twitter after the report's release, Hochul said she believed the women who accused Cuomo and called his behavior "repulsive" and "unlawful." She said the New York State Assembly will determine the next steps.
She did not call on Cuomo to resign but said: "Because Lieutenant Governors stand next in the line of succession, it would not be appropriate to comment further on the process at this moment."

How Kathy Hochul Went from Cuomo’s Surrogate to Brink of Replacing Him
The lieutenant governor once represented Cuomo all over the state. Now she’s slamming his alleged predatory behavior as “repulsive.” Hochul has gone from Buffalo to the precipice of making history as New York’s first female governor.

Shortly after sexual harassment allegations against Gov. Andrew Cuomo surfaced, his press office stopped regularly publishing the public schedule of his next in line: Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul.
The former member of Congress from Buffalo, who had simply expressed support for the investigation launched by State Attorney General Letitia James, went about her largely powerless job, attending ceremonies and making it a point of pride to visit all of New York’s 62 counties at least once annually.
