An effort is underway to draft former three-term Republican Gov. George Pataki to run again for the state’s top office.
Pataki, 76, told The Post on Monday that he is flattered by the draft movement but threw cold water on the bid to persuade him to re-enter politics — at least for now.“It is nice to hear people who think I was a good governor,” he said.and trigger a post-coronavirus-pandemic recovery.
“As for the future, we need dramatic change in New York,” said Pataki, who noted the seven assaults on the subway over the weekend. Pataki won his first gubernatorial term after defeating three-term liberal Democratic incumbent Mario Cuomo, the father of disgraced ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo.“People are afraid to go to the office, to take the subway,” he said. “It’s not a New York that is sustainable. We are at a tipping point.”
He said there are good candidates currently running for governor: Zeldin, former Westchester County Executive
