Gov. Andrew Cuomo urged everyone not to rush to judgment... and instead, wait for the investigation regarding his behavior to play out. That investigation from State Attorney General Letitia James found that the governor harassed multiple women, including some young staffers, and appeared to have broken the laws that his government helped create. Now he faces calls for resignation and an impeachment proceeding.

- Bill Johnson, former Mayor of the city of Rochester
- Jimmy Vielkind, New York politics and government reporter for the Wall Street Journal
- Mary Whittier, former interim CEO of RESOLVE of Greater Rochester
