Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy.

This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Jordan Davidson (June 15, 2021). "Wikipedia's Quiet, Big-Tech-Funded Grip On Internet Knowledge Gives It Too Much Power". The Federalist (website). Retrieved June 16, 2021. In one recent example, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is under federal and state investigation for mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic and growing list of scandals, is described on his Wikipedia page in a positive light while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a potential GOP frontrunner for the 2024 presidential election, is painted as a partisan hack who ignored the science.

Controversies

Official Corruption

I feel that adding this content at the end of this paragraph would improve this article:

In May 2023, the Supreme Court unanimously overturned his conviction.^[1]^[2]

In March 2018, a federal jury in Manhattan convicted Percoco on felony charges of solicitation of bribes and honest services fraud for over $315,000 in bribes he took from two people seeking official favors on behalf of an energy company, Competitive Power Ventures Inc. Prosecutors described him as Cuomo's "right-hand man".^[3]^[4]^[5] Following Percoco's conviction, Cuomo released a statement declaring that he would respect the jury's verdict and that "there is no tolerance for any violation of the public trust".^[6]^[7]^[8] In September 2018, Judge Valerie Caproni sentenced Percoco to 6 years in prison saying "I hope that this sentence will be heard in Albany. I hope it will serve as a warning to others in public service."^[9] In May 2023, the Supreme Court unanimously overturned his conviction.^[10]^[11]

Why is the Cuomo opinion on the Trump case being left out?

Cuomo was the former AG and governor of the same state, so it seems relevant enough to include a short amount of content on his opinion on the Trump election interference and tax fraud (over hush money) case. This isn't to say I agree with that opinion, so nobody should wonder if I'm trying to push something. I think the recent edit was brought in good faith and we should consider keeping it. albeit perhaps with minor tweaks. I realize folks are tied in knots over the presidential election, but we shouldn't let those politics sway our work here.
