    May 24, 2011: Erie County Clerk Kathy Hochul declares victory in a special congressional election in NY's 26th District. Hochul made opposition to House Speaker Paul Ryan's budget the centerpiece of her campaign in a district that had voted for John McCain and George W. Bush.

    And Robert Duffy was Andrew Cuomo's first term LG, but left the ticket in 2014 after struggling with the physical toll of traveling the state and applying for another job. It was Duffy's departure that opened the door for Hochul to become LG in '14:

    David Paterson got the big break, moving up to the governorship when Eliot Spitzer resigned in 2008. But Paterson quickly lost the confidence of the public and party leaders; with polls showing AG Andrew Cuomo clobbering him in a primary match-up, he declined to run in 2010

    Betsy McCaughey Ross was elected with George Pataki in 1994, but was frozen out of his admin. When he dumped her from his '98 ticket, she switched parties and sought the Dem nomination to oppose him, but lost the primary by 35 points to Peter Vallone (who lost to Pataki by 21)

    Stan Lundine gave up a seat in Congress to join Cuomo's ticket in 1986, calculating that Cuomo might run for and win the presidency and elevate Lundine to governor. But Cuomo passed on '88 and '92 runs and a '93 SCOTUS appointment and Lundine went down to defeat with him in 1994:

    Kathy Hochul has a real chance to defy it now, but the history of the NY lieutenant governorship as a stepping stone has not been good. There was Al Del Bello, who resigned as Mario Cuomo's LG out of boredom in 1984 (only to have the news land on page 7...):

    Trying this again, I think with a good link this time... Here is a spreadsheet of all of the accidental governors over the last 4 decades -- as you can see, there's a good, but not perfect, track record here when it comes to winning a full term:

    Gillette, Wyoming was a boom town when 30-year-old Mike Enzi was elected mayor in 1974. He would serve for eight years and later move to the state House and state Senate before winning the first of four terms in the U.S. Senate in 1996. RIP.

    A terrific 7-minute film from : Jack Jacobs, NBC military analyst, recounts the Vietnam battle that resulted in him receiving the Medal of Honor, meeting Nixon, and reconciling with the enemy commander who tried to kill him. Worth your time.

    RIP former Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards, who has died at 93. He was a decided underdog when he launched his bid for a fourth (non-consecutive) term in 1991, but ended up in a run-off with David Duke and won by 22 points, in part through moments like this:

    (I had sent his campaign some ridiculous thing showing that he’d do best if he picked Bob Kerrey as his running mate, I think. I also may have sent something similar to the Bush campaign about dropping Quayle)
