Because they would have easily replaced him with another Republican that's not controversial. If New York was a swing state, Democrats would have left Cuomo alone instead of making him resign to easily replace him with another Democrat.

We're talking about the Nassau County republican party. Theyve called for his resignation, probably knowing it won't happen. But they were pretty aggressive. The RNC which he is now beholden to is far different.
