I don’t really know anything about the guy. Other than he seems like a typical New Yorker to me. And with my broad brush they are all painted as asshole womanizers.

How would Cuomo's removal get a GOP governor?  There would still have to be an election, and while rural New York is heavily red NYC on its own trumps that by a large margin.  So I'm not sure how Cuomo rightfully stepping down sets up a Republican governor for the state.  The last GOP governor was Pataki, and honestly I don't know if he would have won initially without the Howard Stern endorsement.  And no I'm not kidding, Stern was that popular in the 90's
