With eight days to go before the start of early mayoral voting and her campaign running out of steam and money, state Sen. Jessica Ramos (D-Jackson Heights) has endorsed former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the June 24 primary for the Democratic nomination.

Ramos, who had launched pointed attacks on Cuomo, is not suspending her campaign.
