New York Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado said on Monday he would not run for reelection with Gov. Kathy Hochul in 2026 but said he would explore other options to represent New York in state government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have made the decision to not run for reelection with the Governor in 2026,\u201d Delgado said in a statement. \u201cI remain deeply committed to finishing my full term, as I was independently elected to do, by the people of New York.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am determined to be your voice in state government now and in the future. All options are on the table, and I will be exploring them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Candidates run independently for governor and lieutenant governor in the primaries, but their names appear together on the general election ballots, as Hochul\u2019s and Delgado\u2019s did in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delgado has publicly broken with Hochul on a number of issues throughout their tenure, including most recently when he called for New York City Mayor Eric Adams\u2019s resignation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delgado, in his statement, said he decided to run for office nearly a decade ago \u201cbecause I believed we needed more leaders in government willing to hold themselves accountable to the people \u2013 and only the people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine’s Zelensky says he’s ready to step down if that achieves peace<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe New Yorkers deserve this kind of leadership now more than ever,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The governor\u2019s communications director, Anthony Hogrebe, quickly issued a statement responding to Delgado\u2019s announcement Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday, Antonio Delgado finally said out loud what has been obvious for quite some time: he is simply not interested in doing the job of the Lieutenant Governor of the State of New York,\u201d Hogrebe wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGovernor Hochul had already begun taking steps to identify a new running mate for 2026,\u201d Hogrebe continued. \u201cWe will also be reallocating responsibilities within the administration to ensure that important initiatives that had been within the Lieutenant Governor\u2019s office are no longer neglected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGovernor Hochul wishes him the best in his future endeavors,\u201d Hogrebe added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
