Cuomo Critic Launches Cartoon Series Featuring ‘Governor Cuomocchio’
JILL COLVIN
Critics to the left of Gov. Andrew Cuomo are ratcheting up their attacks with a new cartoon series portraying him as the Pinocchio-inspired “Governor Cuomocchio.”
The series, which is being launched by the advocacy group EffectiveNY, “will highlight Governor Cuomo’s propensity for stretching the truth and his record of failing to deliver on big promises,” according to a press release set to go out later this afternoon.
The first edition is currently running in the Legislative Gazette, which is distributed to all of the legislative offices in Albany, and suggests that Mr. Cuomo is falling short when it comes to moving the state in a “progressive direction” and passing campaign finance reform.
“Will he keep his promise or will he be…Governor Cuomocchio?” it concludes.
