FILE - In this Feb. 16, 2014, file photo, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, left, and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio attend a Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic and Asian Legislative Caucus Weekend church service at the Wilborn Temple in Albany, N.Y. De Blasio’s first 100 days as mayor of NYC were marked in nearly equal measures by accomplishing campaign goals and committing political blunders. Most of his time and energy was spent on his signature campaign promise - to tax the city’s rich to pay for universal pre-K. That resulted in only a partial victory after the surprise entry of Cuomo, who rejected the tax idea and offered to fund pre-kindergarten through the state budget. (AP Photo/Mike Groll, File)
