Cuomo gets WFP ballot line

Gov. Cuomo managed to finagle the Working Families Party ballot line.  It is unclear if he will still be primaried for it or how many of it’s supporters will actually come out to help Andrew.

Bob McManus sums up the nomination process nicely:

“… [It] Revealed the famously ferocious Cuomo for the hollow log that he is — all echo and no innards [and] Provided US Attorney Preet Bharara with a boatload of new leads for his current corruption probes.  Offering policy concessions in return for political favors — which Cuomo & Co. reportedly spent most of Friday and Saturday doing — is a felony in some circles, after all …”

I think this is more of a PR win for Cuomo and won’t translate into much money/votes for his campaign.
