translated from Spanish: New York Governor Resigns Following Allegations of Sexual Harassment

Embest-ditched New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday announced his resignation after 11 women accused him of sexual harassment.
“I think under the circumstances, the best way I can help now is if I stand aside and let the government become government again,” Cuomo said in a live speech. “My resignation will be effective in 14 days.”
Cuomo, 63, denied the sexual harassment allegations outlined in a report released last week by the New York attorney general’s office.

But she said she wanted to “apologize deeply, deeply” to any woman who might have been offended by her actions.
“I’ve been too casual with people,” he said. “I hug and kiss people casually, women and men. I’ve done it all my life.”
“In my mind, I never crossed the line with anyone,” he added. “But I didn’t realize the extent to which the line has been redrawn.”

Cuomo will be replaced by Lt. Gov. Kathleen Hochul, also a Democrat.
