Cuo-no more.
Andrew Cuomo will drop out of the mayor’s race after his humiliating defeat against socialist Zohran Mamdani, sources told The Post — as the ex-governor’s donors and backers desert him and weigh whether to boost Eric Adams.
Several insiders close to the Cuomo camp said Wednesday that the thrice-elected Democrat will almost certainly not run in the general election as an independent candidate, seeing no obvious path to victory.
“The understanding is he’s not running, every indication is that he doesn’t want to do it and the money wouldn’t be there even if he did want to do it,” said one of the sources, a leader from a prominent union.
Cuomo’s bruised backers are eyeing shifting their support — to Adams or even an independent candidate — after the former gov faceplanted in Tuesday’s Democratic mayoral primary to dark-horse left-wing hopeful Mamdani.
