Andrew Cuomo allies are trying to make contact with Biden officials but are getting ignored, report says

• The New York AG said on Tuesday that Gov. Andrew Cuomo had sexually harassed 11 women.
• Later that day, President Joe Biden called on Cuomo to resign as governor of New York State.
• Cuomo allies have tried to phone Biden officials, but their calls are being ignored, NBC News said.

Allies of Gov. Andrew Cuomo are trying to contact officials in President Joe Biden's administration, but their calls are being left to ring out, NBC News reported.

On Tuesday, Biden said Cuomo should resign following the release of a report from the New York Attorney General that concluded Cuomo had sexually harassed 11 women. He denies the allegations.

Cuomo has been holed up at his official residence in Albany since Tuesday, according to reports.

On Wednesday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said that Biden has not spoken to Cuomo about the allegations.

However, allies of Cuomo made efforts to call Biden officials on Tuesday several times following the president's comments, but their calls were purposefully ignored, NBC News said.

A White House official told NBC News that it is clear that there would be negative fallout if it came to light that the Biden and Cuomo camps were conducting secret talks.

Insider contacted the White House and Cuomo's office for comment.

Allegations against Cuomo outlined in the New York Attorney General's report include that he kissed aide Lindsey Boylan without her consent, ran his finger down the neck and back of a female State Trooper, and grabbed the buttocks of a female assistant during hugs and when posing for photos.

The report details how Cuomo's office worked to discredit Boylan, Cuomo's first accuser, by leaking her fact file to US journalists.
