Hochul says she's not sweating potential independent run by Andrew Cuomo
[NYPOST] Gov. Kathy Hochul said she hasn’t lost any sleep about her disgraced predecessor Andrew Sonny Cuomo potentially launching an independent bid to oust her.

During an interview on ABC that aired Sunday, Hochul declined to weigh in when asked about her "message" to the scandal-scarred fellow Democrat — following the release of a poll that showed Cuomo could play spoiler if mounts a longshot independent bid.

"I have no message," the governor said. "Everyone will do what they choose to do."

Hochul told anchor Bill Ritter she was "proud" to lead the Empire State, and will "continue being focused on delivering for New Yorkers."

"We certainly already have at least six people running for the seat," she noted, adding, "I’m working hard. No one will ever outwork me, and I’m very passionate about the word I do."

A poll of registered voters conducted by Emerson College/The Hill released Wednesday showed that Cuomo getting on the ballot as an independent could give a Republican contender a better shot in the November’s contest.

In the hypothetical matchup, 33% of voters said they would support a generic Democratic nominee, 33% would back the Republican, and 16 percent would vote for the disgraced former governor, while 18% were unsure.

#2 I suspect if Fredo's older brother seriously considers a run, I'd expect to see a few more allegations of sexual impropriety arise.
