What if Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani ran for Governor of New York in the New York Gubernatorial Election of 2002? His popularity after the September 11th, 2001 Terrorist Attacks might help him primary Incumbent Governor George Pataki and win the general election. Perhaps the POD could be Pataki not running for re-election in 2002? This idea came to me from his OTL presidential campaign. In 2008 he was fairly irrelevant, but did enjoy being front-runner for a while. Do you think Giuliani could win a second term in the New York Gubernatorial Election of 2006? How would his one or two terms as Governor help his presidential campaign?
