New York Governor David Paterson admitted to using drugs in an interview on NY1 News with Dominic Carter on March 24, 2008. He stated that when he was in his 20's he tried cocaine and marijuana but says he doesn't "think" he's touched marijuana since the late 70s. Paterson stated that he had been asked on camera during his run for lieutenant governor in 2006 about drug use and he had answered "in the affirmative".
