Related: About this forumZephyr Teachout brushed off from Andrew Cuomo during Labor Day Parade
BY DENIS SLATTERY , CORINNE LESTCH
Democratic challenger Zephyr Teachout got within arms length of Gov. Cuomo on Saturday, but all she got was a cold shoulder.
Teachout, who is running against Cuomo in Tuesdays primary, tried several times to approach him during the Labor Day Parade on Fifth Ave.
She first encountered a man who appeared to be one of Cuomos handlers, and he immediately stepped in between her and Cuomo, a video posted on newyorktrue.com shows.
