NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday he has not ruled out a run for New York governor.
"I haven't ruled in or ruled out anything. I have not made any decisions about the future," he said during his press conference. "As you can tell, right now, my singular focus is on beating back COVID and getting this city to a full recovery. At some point I've got to figure out what I'm doing."
The two-term Democratic mayor said it is a decision he is weighing because he "cares deeply" about public service.
"I have not made any decisions about the future," he added.
Governor Andrew Cuomo is eligible to seek a fourth term in office though he faces ongoing investigations by state Attorney General Letitia James for numerous sexual misconduct allegations and his handling of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes. Cuomo has not formally bowed out of the 2022 race.
