There’s three days left in the legislative session, and chances are dimming for a settlement on an abortion rights provision in a women’s equality act, and for reform of campaign financing and other anti-corruption measures.  Meanwhile, a new poll finds the public increasingly dissatisfied.
 
As the session winds down, it seems that two of the governor’s top agenda items are doomed in the State Senate.
 

There are only four days left in the legislative session, and so far no agreements have been reached between Governor Cuomo and the legislature on major issues like campaign finance reform or a women’s equality act.
 
Deals are often forged in the final days of the session, but Governor Cuomo has already admitted he might have to accept compromises on at least two of his top priorities- enacting public financing of political campaigns and an abortion rights provision in a 10 point women’s equality act.
