Rob Astorino is no stranger to politics. The former two-term Westchester County Executive was the Republican nominee for governor of New York in 2014, and of the three challengers to incumbent Gov. Andrew Cuomo in 2010, 2014, and 2018, Astorino gave him the toughest race—losing by a margin of 13.4 percent.

Following Cuomo’s resignation in 2021 amid a string of sexual harassment allegations, Astorino is running again this year.
