New York. A son of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Andrew Giuliani, wants to become governor of the US state of New York. He announced on Tuesday that he would run as the Republican Party candidate for the gubernatorial election in 2022. The 35-year-old could run against the Democratic incumbent Andrew Cuomo, as he promised in an interview with the newspaper “New York Post”.
In a video on Twitter, the young Giuliani Cuomo criticized for banning gatherings and closing shops and schools in the face of the coronavirus pandemic. “At the first sign of a problem, they choose to shut us down,” said Giuliani. “You are taking away our freedoms. They put healthy people in quarantine. “
Cuomo has not yet announced whether he will run for re-election. Allegations of sexual harassment have been raised against him.
The ex-mayor’s son was an adviser to the White House under then-President Donald Trump. He has also worked for the conservative broadcaster Newsmax. He has not previously run for public office. Rudy Giuliani was Trump’s personal attorney.
