Comedian Amy Schumer says she voted for Cynthia Nixon after all — in a surprise last-minute flip-flop just days after switching allegiances to incumbent Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
“We voted. And we voted for [Cynthia Nixon] couldn’t help it. And for [Zephyr Teachout] and [Jumaane Williams],” she wrote on Instagram, “voted with my heart thanks to the women who took their time to talk to me about it. When someone disagrees with you be patient and have a conversation. It’s most productive.”
The “Trainwreck” star has kicked in $10,000 to Nixon’s gubernatorial campaign but raised eyebrows on Tuesday when she announced she was backing Cuomo instead, saying she didn’t believe her fellow actress “would know what the heck to do.”
“Andrew isn’t my fav dude But he’s good gov,” she wrote on Instagram at the time, alongside a photo of her dog and kitten.
“[Nixon] needs to be able to pressure the state legislature in stuff but I don’t believe she has enough connections upstate.”
Her cousin, Sen. Chuck Schumer, also endorsed Cuomo.
