Electrical workers endorse Cuomo in NYC mayoral race [View all]

A union representing nearly 29,000 electrical workers announced their endorsement of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday, the latest group to flip to Cuomo after endorsing Mayor Adams in the 2021 campaign.

Cuomo made the announcement at the Local 3 IBEW biennial luncheon in Midtown.

In his address to the group, Christopher Erikson, business manager of Local 3, highlighted Cuomo’s achievements as governor, including raising the minimum wage and advancing major projects like the Moynihan Train Hall and Second Ave. subway with union labor.

Erikson praised Cuomo as understanding “the importance of good union jobs” that boost the middle class and opportunities for young people.
