“Actor and activist Cynthia Nixon urged Democrats on Saturday to carve out an identity apart from just opposition to the president and run “bluer Democrats” in 2018, as she herself mulls a primary challenge to Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
“We have to be more than the anti-Trump party,” she said at the annual Human Rights Campaign Greater New York gala, where she was given the Visibility Award. “In 2018, we don't just need to elect more Democrats, we also need better Democrats.”
Cuomo himself and other New York elected officials also spoke at the prominent LGBTQ group’s event, which was strewn with talk of the Trump administration’s record on LGBTQ issues and the need for Democrats to mobilize in the midterm elections this year.
The HRC endorsed Cuomo’s reelection bid last week, calling him a “national champion” for the LGBTQ community. Nixon, who has not confirmed whether she plans to run against him, has been vocal on gay rights issues as well as education funding, chastising the governor last year for public school spending inequality in New York state.
In her speech Saturday, she called on the Democratic Party nationally to pay more attention to income inequality and abandon “the big money interests that fund its campaigns,” before bringing the focus back to New York.”
