Already at war with Gov. Cuomo, Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan has been telling people he is considering a 2018 run for governor, sources said Wednesday.
Flanagan, a Suffolk County Republican, has been battling with Cuomo for weeks over a legislative pay raise and other issues.
Flanagan spokesman Scott Reif didn't deny the Long Island Republican is considering a run, which was first reported by Newsday.
“Senator Flanagan has been a member of the Assembly and Senate for three decades and considers it an honor and privilege to now serve as Senate majority leader,” Reif told the Daily News. “We just started our legislative session last week and all he is focused on is doing the people’s business.”
