(KYMA, KECY/ CNN) - Monday is New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's official last day in office as his resignation takes effect at 11:59 pm.

At midnight, Lieutenant Kathy Hochul is set to be sworn into office.

Cuomo has denied all of the allegation, saying he never touched anyone inappropriately, but acknowledged that some of his behavior made others uncomfortable.
