Andrew Cuomo is Such a Classy Guy
As expected, Andrew Cuomo won the primary, though Zephyr Teachout and Tim Wu did a lot better than expected, polling at about 35%, far more than the 20% that was anticipated, so it was a bit of a black eye for Cuomo, and pretty much ensures that he will not be the VP pick in 2016.
Cuomo did not even bother having a victory party continuing his policy of not acknowledging Ms. Teachout's, but he topped this when we found out that Zephyr Teachout unable to call him to concede because he refused to give her a number to call:
As expected, Governor Andrew Cuomo won New York's Democratic primary on Tuesday night, but the success of his Mean Girls–esque strategy of ignoring rival Zephyr Teachout is still up for debate. With 90 percent of precincts reporting, Cuomo had 61 percent of the vote to Teachout's 35 percent (with comedian Randy Credico at 4 percent). That's not exactly the landslide Cuomo was looking for, and the governor embarrassed himself through his ridiculous efforts to avoid acknowledging the Fordham Law School professor, even when she was standing two feet away from him.Really classy, Andy, really f%$# classy.
Apparently, Cuomo kept up the act straight through primary night. He did not hold a victory party (which would have suggested he participated in a primary), and Teachout was reportedly unable to concede to the governor with a phone call, as he wouldn't give her his number.
