Gotham Two Governors’ Sucker Punches at the Port Authority

“Gotham” columnist Michael Powell weighs in on the critical audit of the Port Authority: “…There has been for some time a scandal-foreordained feel to this audit. Mr. Ward is widely hailed as a public infrastructure visionary with an independent mind. That trait can be a character failing in politics. So in October, a Cuomo official appeared to whisper to the New York Post columnist Fredric U. Dicker that the audit had found that Mr. Ward engaged in ‘extravagant overspending.’ This was curious, as the auditing firm had only just commenced its work.”
