Embattled New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) is faces new allegations of misconduct by former staff in a new report by The Washington Post.
"A former press aide of Andrew M. Cuomo says he summoned her to his dimly lit hotel room and embraced her after a work event in 2000, when Cuomo led the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and she was a consultant for the agency.

Organizing by progressives in Nevada paid off on Saturday during elections that determined control of the state's Democratic Party.
"Clark County Democratic Party Chair Judith Whitmer defeated Clark County Commissioner Tick Segerblom on Saturday to assume control of the Nevada State Democratic Party, ushering a dramatic shakeup of the state party's power structure by its most liberal wing," the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. "Three other progressives running alongside Whitmer captured four of the other officer positions during the election, which was held during a virtual meeting of the state party's central committee. Whitmer received 248 votes to Segerblom's 216 for the chair position."
