[NYPOST] Gov. Andrew SonnyCuomo won his Democratic primary fight Tuesday -- but not without getting bruised by little-known leftist krazed killer Zephyr Teachout's surprisingly strong showing.
With 94 percent of the ballots counted, Teachout had 34.6 percent of the vote to Cuomo's 61.7 percent -- even though she ran a shoestring campaign against a well-financed incumbent who outspent her 10 to 1.
And a third candidate on the ballot, Randy Credico, got about 3.7 percent -- meaning that almost 40 percent of Democratic voters cast their ballots against the gov.
Teachout -- whom Cuomo tried to have booted from the ballot -- won about two dozen upstate counties. In a major embarrassment, she easily won Albany County -- the capital and seat of state government.
"Cuomo lost everything tonight except the nomination," said former city Public Advocate Mark Green, who supported ÂTeachÂout.
Baruch College Professor Doug Muzzio said, "This is very surprising. This has to be a shock to Cuomo. Andrew Cuomo took a hard shot here.
"Zephyr Teachout's protest candidacy was successful. Her candidacy served as a catalyst to Democrats unhappy with Cuomo. There's no way for the Cuomo camp to positively spin this."
