Working Families Party Withdraws Nixon Ballot Line, Backs Incumbent Gov. Cuomo
Good news for Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Potentially bad news for the future of the Working Families Party. The WFP nominated Cuomo of New Castle for re-election on Wednesday night after he defeated the third party's endorsed candidate, actor Cynthia Nixon, in the Sept. 13 primary. But the last-minute maneuver puts the party, founded as an alliance between leftwing activists and some unions, at risk: It needs 50,000 votes on Nov. 6 to retain its line on New York state ballots for the next four years.

Cuomo, of New Castle, made the seemingly offhand remark as part of his rebuke of Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan during a bill-signing ceremony in New York. But the line drew immediate gasps from the crowd. “We’re not going to make America great again…
