Women's Equality Party (New York)
The Women's Equality Party was a minor political party active within the state of New York. It was founded in 2014 by Andrew Cuomo and appeared alongside his name on the 2014 and 2018 gubernatorial ballots under New York's electoral fusion law. The party encountered controversy due to endorsing the male Andrew Cuomo for governor over primary challengers Zephyr Teachout and Cynthia Nixon in 2014 and 2018, which has led to claims that the party was a front organization for Cuomo's gubernatorial campaigns in 2014 and 2018. The party lost ballot access following the 2018 elections. Interest in the history of the party increased following sexual harassment allegations made against Cuomo and his subsequent resignation.
