More than 50 percent of New York City residents want Gov. Cuomo to run for president in 2020, a new poll shows.
Mayor de Blasio, on the other-hand, should probably think twice about throwing his hat into the ring — seeing how nearly 60 percent of city residents said they would not want him to be a candidate.
“The opinion toward de Blasio is far less favorable than it is toward the governor,” Baruch College pollster Doug Muzzio told NY1, in response to a joint poll they conducted recently on who should run for president.
The results, which were released Tuesday night, ultimately showed strong support for the governor — including a 58 percent approval rating.
Asked if they would want to see Cuomo run in 2020, a resounding 56 percent of those questioned said they would.
The numbers are ultimately a far cry from what New Yorkers were saying back in December, and even in March — when more than half of the people surveyed in a Quinnipiac University poll said he shouldn’t make a run for office.
“It’s another sharp reversal,” Muzzio explained. “They said, ‘Don’t go.’ [Now] they are saying, ‘Go, go, go.’ And again, all the groups are in favor of it except Republicans.”
