New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has denied allegations that he sexually harassed one of his former staffers, New York Daily News reports.
Cuomo said in a statement that "a woman has the right to come forward and express her opinion" but further described the allegations as "simply not true."
"I heard about the tweet, and what it said about comments that I had made, and it’s just not true," Cuomo claimed.
The accusations against Cuomo come from a woman named Lindsey Boylan, a former staffer in Cuomo's office and candidate for Congress. She is now a candidate for Manhattan Borough President on the Democratic Party ticket.
"Yes, [Governor Cuomo] sexually harassed me for years. Many saw it, and watched," Boylan claimed in a tweet. "I could never anticipate what to expect: would I be grilled on my work (which was very good) or harassed about my looks. Or would it be both in the same conversation? This was the way for years."
Boylan also alleged that she was not the only victim of sexual assault at the hands of Governor Cuomo.
This is a developing story.
