From The New York Times:
Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo has not formally announced his candidacy for governor, but he is already running ahead in the fund-raising race.
Mr. Cuomo is to report on Friday that he has more than $16 million in his campaign account, dwarfing Gov. David A. Paterson’s war chest of more than $3 million.
The $13 million gap underscores a growing sense of inevitability surrounding Mr. Cuomo, with donors and other prominent Democrats increasingly viewing him as the party’s nominee for governor. The lopsided results also raise questions about the governor’s ability to wage a robust and competitive campaign for governor.
