The social media influencer behind “Hot Girls For Cuomo” found herself outmaneuvered on Tuesday after someone swooped in to purchase the website and redirected it towards allegations of sexual harassment against former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Conservative influencer Emily Austin launched her campaign “Hot Girls For Cuomo” on Tuesday, as part of an attempt to defeat Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayoral race.
Austin – who has been photographed with President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the White House Oval Office – also urged Republican New Yorkers to back Cuomo as an independent instead of Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, arguing Sliwa was not capable of defeating Mamdani in the race.
“Today, I’m officially starting ‘Hot Girls For Cuomo,’ so if you are a hot girl for Andrew Cuomo, I want to hear from you,” announced Austin in a social media video.
However, it quickly became apparent that Austin had failed to secure the “HotGirlsForCuomo.com” domain, leaving it up for grabs for an anti-Cuomo activist to swoop in.
As of reporting, the website “HotGirlsForCuomo.com” redirects visitors to the New York Attorney General’s official investigation into the sexual harassment allegations made against Cuomo in 2021.
The official investigation found that Cuomo “sexually harassed a number of current and former New York State employees by, among other things, engaging in unwelcome and nonconsensual touching, as well as making numerous offensive comments of a suggestive and sexual nature.”
“Our investigation revealed that the Governor’s sexually harassing behavior was not limited to members of his own staff, but extended to other State employees, including a State Trooper on his protective detail and members of the public,” the investigation concluded, detailing a number of incidents during which the then-governor allegedly kissed, groped, and made inappropriate comments towards women.
While Cuomo denied the allegations, he resigned as governor in August 2021.
