<img alt="FILE - Former New York Gov.

Despite participating in the Democratic primary, he plans an independent run regardless of the primary outcome. This strategy aims to attract Republican and independent voters.
Current Mayor Eric Adams, elected as a Democrat but now running for re-election as an independent, criticized Cuomo's tactic as an imitation of his own approach.
Cuomo's decision throws a wrench into the already crowded Democratic primary. With two debates remaining before the party nominates a candidate, Cuomo is currently leading in the polls.
