Prediction: Gov. Cuomo Will Approve Fracking

Word comes from State Senate leader

The dean of the Albany press corps reports in the New York Post that there are predictions Gov. Cuomo will approved hydrofracking later this year or early in 2013.  Fred Dicker says Deputy Majority Leader Tom Libous (R) from the Binghamton area believes Cuomo will approve fracking before the legislature returns to the capitol in the hopes of avoiding criticism and opposition.

Binghamton, like most of upstate New York, is suffering economically and hydrofracking creates many jobs.
