Gov. Andrew Cuomo today released a batch of campaign-style ads, which focus on some of his signature policy initiatives.

The three advertisements, paid for by the governor’s campaign account, promote Mr. Cuomo’s support of property tax cuts and his opposition to Common Core testing.

Their release comes just as Mr. Cuomo’s possible Republican rival, Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, ramps up his gubernatorial bid.

“Here in New York, Democrats and Republicans, working together, have made much progress. And we will do even more,” Mr. Cuomo says in the ad aimed at both upstate and downstate residents. “One of my top legislative priorities for the session is to cut property taxes. They are simply out of control. My plan will cut taxes by requiring local governments to work together.”
