Post: Paterson Not Seeking Full Term

The New York Post is now reporting that New York Governor David Paterson will not be seeking a full term in an upcoming election.

Citing “multiple sources,” the Post says Paterson will announce between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. today that he’s dropping out of the race.

Today, several New York papers, including the Post and the Daily News, published editorials calling for Paterson’s resignation in light of Wednesday evening’s New York Times report that said he called a woman alleging assault against one of his aides, shortly before the woman was slated to appear in court to press her case.
