Candidates
Declined
- James L. Emery, nominee for lieutenant governor in 1982[1]
- Rudy Giuliani, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York[2]
- Roy M. Goodman, State Senator from Manhattan[3][2]
- Henry Kissinger, former U.S. Secretary of State
- Lewis Lehrman, banker and nominee for governor in 1982
Lewis Lehrman, the 1982 Republican nominee for governor, decided early on not to mount another candidacy versus Cuomo. Lehrman's decision to forgo a candidacy was seen as a blow to state Republican leaders, given his strong performance in 1982 and wide fundraising capacity.[2] Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger considered running for governor and was deemed an "able" challenger,[4] and decision to ultimately pass on a candidacy also led to a leadership vacuum.[1]
In the end, O'Rourke secured the Republican nomination, and was praised as an "extremely credible candidate" by White House official Bill Lacy.[1] His running mate was E. Michael Kavanagh, who served as District Attorney of Ulster County.[5]
