"Andrew Cuomo raised more than $390,000 for his mayoral run in the immediate aftermath of Mayor Adams' suspension of his reelection campaign, according to a source familiar with the ex-governor's latest filing set to be released Friday. The Cuomo camp's $390,763 haul came from 1,714 individuals in the 36 hours after Adams announced this past Sunday he was ditching his bid for a second term, the source told the Daily News."
""Momentum is on our side at exactly the right moment," Bill Mulrow, Cuomo's campaign chairman, said in a statement before the release of the latest filing, which covers fundraising activities between Aug. 19 and this past Monday. "Voters are just now tuning into this race, and they want a safe city they can afford to live in, and they know Andrew Cuomo has the experience to deliver and the ability to hit the ground running on day one.""
Andrew Cuomo raised $390,763 from 1,714 donors in the 36 hours after Mayor Adams withdrew from the mayoral race. That amount represented 42% of the roughly $940,000 Cuomo raised during the reporting period covering Aug. 19 through this past Monday. About $337,076 of the period's contributions are eligible for public matching funds, which could generate as much as $2.6 million in public cash. Cuomo is running as an independent and is not expected to reach the $8 million spending cap. Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani already hit the cap last month and began seven-figure television ad buys this week.
