Brendan Cheney
Governor Andrew Cuomo is battling with Mayor Bill de Blasio and other city officials over how to allocate $100 million in state funding for the New York City Housing Authority.
This year's state budget included $100 million for repairs at NYCHA buildings but city officials are worried Cuomo will not earmark the money for roof repair and replacement, as NYCHA had requested, a move Councilman Mark Levine on Thursday called a "shameless act."
The mayor, Council and many residents argue roof repairs are of highest priority because leaky roofs lead to mold, mildew, asthma and a host of other conditions.

But I agree, I don't see him beating any democratic candidate.
