Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo said he voted for his brother Andrew Cuomo for president, who disgraced the former New York governor, even though he is not running for the White House.
Cuomo, who is currently a host on NewsNation, shared the news with Patrick Bett-David on the PBD podcast. According to a report in the New York Post, Bette David seems to assume that Cuomo voted for Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I probably shouldn't say it, but I can tell you who I voted for. I voted for my brother. I wrote him a letter,” Cuomo said. “By the way, he didn't win.”

“Are you kidding me?” the podcast host asked.
“No, I'll show you the picture,” Cuomo replied before showing Bette David a photo on his cell phone.
Bette David gasped at the phone and replied, “Get out of here!”
Journalists did not let Bette David display the image on the screen.
“It may have been illegal for me to take the photo, so let's pretend it didn't happen,” he said.

“My sense is that America can do better than these two candidates,” Cuomo said, noting that his brother is a Democrat.
“To me, that selection just falls short of American leadership standards. I think we have better people,” he said.
The journalist told his brother about his vote, but said he had “something else I wanted to talk about.”
