Governor Cuomo got his moment on the convention stage Thursday night before Hillary Clinton’s speech. He started the speech by mentioning his father, and Mario Cuomo’s famous 1984 Tale of Two Cities speech at the San Francisco convention 32 years ago.
Cuomo then went on to list his accomplishments, including raising the minimum wage in New York, and enacting paid family leave and marriage equality, and banning hydro fracking.
Finally, he turned to his party’s Presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, saying he spent eight years in her husband President Bill Clinton’s administration, and worked with her as Senator. He says Hillary Clinton is a “unifying” force.
