Conservative Republicans have no place in New York with their right-wing views because "that's not what New Yorkers are," Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo says.
"Right-to-life, pro-assault weapons, anti-gay — if that's who they are, they have no place in the state of New York because that's not who New Yorkers are," he continued.
Cuomo said his words don't extend to moderate Republicans, such as those in the state Senate, who he believes "have a place in their state."
Further, Cuomo complained that Republicans with "extreme" views create an identity crisis for their own party, and give people more to worry about than himself or other Democrats.
"Their problem isn't me and the Democrats; their problem is themselves," said Cuomo.
Further, he said conservative Republicans' views are out of step with most New Yorkers' and said the GOP needs to back moderates to win seats this fall.
"You have a schism within the Republican Party,” Cuomo said. "They’re searching to define their soul. That’s what’s going on . . . It’s a mirror of what’s going on in Washington."
