New York (11/2/2010) - Democrat Andrew Cuomo cruised to victory in the New York State governor's race Tuesday night. Charles Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand and Eric Schneiderman also came out on top for the Democrats.
Cuomo beat Republican candidate Carl Paladino. Cuomo used to be the Attorney General of New York but he will give up that position now that he is the Governor.
Cuomo claimed victory in an address to supporters late Tuesday night at the Midtown Sheraton, where he called on New Yorkers to unite and move forward under his watch.
Paladino was disappointed that he did not win.
