Meet Kathy Hochul: New York's Soon-To-Be First Female Governor
|
[Daily Mail - American Journalist R Lazy] 'She works hard, she listens to people, she cares,' Albany Mayor Kathy Sheehan told The Wall Street Journal. 'In any state, you want for your lieutenant governor somebody who can do the job of governor. It doesn’t always happen, but in Kathy Hochul’s case she has the ability to do the job if it comes to it,
 She describes herself as 'progressive' and is keenly pro-choice and pro-LGBTQ rights. Hochul is well-liked upstate, where Cuomo's popularity has evaporated. 'She is probably one of the most down-to-earth people that you could ever meet,' Assemblywoman Karen McMahon told Politico recently. 'She’s gone to great heights in government, yet one-to-one, she is so accessible and so warm and just a very generous person. She’s always able to help — particularly women, too.'
Unlike Cuomo — whose father was a governor, and who grew up in wealth and New York society — Hochul's family are Irish immigrants. On her public bio, she recounts how her mother and father once lived in a trailer on the grounds of the steel plant where her father worked in Buffalo.
| I assume the Bethlehem Steel plant in Lackawanna, which closed in 1983. |
Her husband is William J. Hochul Jr, a prosecutor of 23 years whose convictions include those of the Lackawanna Six — six American men who joined al-Qaeda.
| Yemeni-Americans from Lackawanna’s First Ward section that used to be primarily Black and now has halal abattoirs cheek by jowl with little Yemeni mosques, while the public schools let the Muslim kids leave class to conduct their prayers. The Six were so egregious that the elders of their mosque called the authorities to report them. |
He is now a private attorney but was previously the United States attorney for the Western District of New York from 2010 to 2016. The pair live in Buffalo in a $800,000, three-bedroom apartment, according to public records.
| Why are they paying New York City prices in Buffalo, where housing is relatively inexpensive? You can get a nice 3 bedroom mid-century ranch house in a good school district on 1/2 acre property for about $180,000. |
Their kids are in their early 30s. Katie, or Caitlin, works for PR firm Concepts Inc whose past clients include The Gates Foundation and the Justice Department. Her son, William Hochul III, is a DC lawyer.
