As a general rule, unless a politician has committed a criminal offense (and even then it's not automatic) I don't think they should be forced into resignation. It's ultimately up to the voters to decide who they want to represent them. IE: Cuomo likely won't resign
Obviously if the crime committed is one that keeps the politician in POWER (election disruption, influence peddling) then yes they should be bounced, likely by an impeachment process after an outside investigation
In #Cuomo case, as bad as the allegations are, there should be a full investigation carried out by a non-governmental agency. Then his party and the voters can decide what they want to do with him. The key is an investigation
Allegations alone, no matter how credible, how salacious or how damning shouldn't be enough to get anyone to leave office. They should be investigated, and that should apply to those levied against candidate Biden or sitting officials like Cuomo or Justin Fairfax
The rush to push somebody out of office, without an investigation, ultimately doesn't serve the alleged victims, who shouldn't have to provide all the evidence alone, nor does it serve the accused, who may never get exonerated without a full investigation
