Socialist NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani brings in $642K in campaign donations
Socialist Queens Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani has raked in a sizable $642,339 in the latest fundraising period, getting checks from 6,502 unique donors, his team announced Tuesday.
Eighty-four percent of the donations, many from first-time donors, came from within New York City, according to the campaign.
His campaign estimated at least $300,000 will be matched by the city’s 8:1 public financing program, bringing in an additional $2.4 million.
“This is beyond our highest expectations,” Mamdani said. “It’s not just the raw donations from the breath and diversity of the donors.”
