Email share

 

This week on New York NOW we take a look at the past week which included the state takeover of the troubled New York Racing Association and what Governor Cuomo’s political speech at the Democratic State Committee meeting in Albany means or doesn’t mean for Senate Democrats this November. Will he throw his support behind his party, whose functionality during their two year reign of the chamber has been roundly criticized or will he stay away from them and quietly hope to continue to work with the Senate GOP, a party he’s had much success with during his 17 months in office?  We analyze these questions this week with an expanded Reporters Roundtable with Freeman Klopott of Bloomberg News, Glenn Blain of the Daily News and Jim Odato of the Times Union. Watch video above.
