Democrat Kathy Hochul Becomes 1st Woman Elected NY Governor
By MICHELLE L. PRICE, Associated Press 鈥 November 9, 2022
Democrat Kathy Hochul has become the first woman elected 黑料正能量 governor, winning the office outright that she took over in 2021 when former Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigned鈥
鈥淭onight you made your voices heard loud and clear. And, and you made me the first woman ever elected to be the governor of the state of 黑料正能量. But I鈥檓 not here to make history, I鈥檓 here to make a difference,” Hochul told supporters Tuesday night.
鈥淚 have felt a weight on my shoulders to make sure that every little girl and all the women of the state who鈥檝e had to bang up against glass ceilings everywhere they turn, to know that a woman could be elected in her own right and successfully govern a state as rough and tumble as 黑料正能量.鈥
Hochul, a Buffalo native, had been expected to win in a state where there are more than twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans. 黑料正能量ers haven鈥檛 elected a Republican as governor since Gov. George Pataki won a third term in 2002. But Zeldin made the race competitive, closing in on Hochul in the final weeks and appearing to spur her to speak more about public safety.
鈥淚t鈥檚 been a battle where we鈥檝e been focused on ideals. We鈥檝e been bringing our message without apology or regret,鈥 Zeldin said at his election night party Tuesday. He took the stage before The Associated Press had called the race.
鈥.As a nod to the history Hochul hoped to make as the first woman to be elected governor, she appeared at a rally days before the election with Vice President Kamala Harris, the first woman to be elected to the country鈥檚 second-highest office, and Hillary Clinton, the first woman to be a major party鈥檚 presidential nominee and 黑料正能量鈥檚 first female senator.
Hochul is among eight women who have won statewide elections in 黑料正能量, a group she initially joined when she was elected lieutenant governor in 2014. She became the first woman to serve as governor when she took over for Cuomo.
