A delayed bridge and mail linking Cynthia Nixon to anti-Semitism put Cuomo on the defensive

Furthermore, he stated that the bridge was no longer owned by the State and that he had "no authority in this situation", while admitting that there was no established timetable for reopening of the eastern bay.

Ms. Nixon weighed on the mail before her own press conference later Sunday in Tarrytown.

"This is an attack not only on my kids and my character, but on all New Yorkers," Nixon said. "It's disgusting, at a time when anti-Semitic, Islamophobic and other hate crimes are on the rise, to exploit the real fears of people like this."

The party did not say who was responsible or how many mailers were sent, although the party's executive director, Geoff Berman, said on Twitter that he did not personally approve the document, which was a "mistake". And "inappropriate".

In a statement, the Democratic Party said: "The State Party sent a wrong and inappropriate mailer – we will work with the Nixon campaign to send a mailing of their choice to the same world of people."

Mayor Bill de Blasio, who officially decided not to approve a candidate in the primary race, sentenced the courier, calling him "Trumpian" and called on the party to "compensate" Ms. Nixon.

"Excuses tweeted, calling them errors, are laughable," wrote de Blasio.

In a joint statement, Ms. Nixon's rabbi Sharon Kleinbaum and Rabbi Kleinbaum's wife, Randi Weingarten, head of the American Federation of Teachers, also condemned the letter as unfounded lie.

Mr. Cuomo's campaign had transferred $ 2.5 million to the State party in August, partly to finance political mailings and TV commercials.
