"The Mamdani campaign made a payment of $28,677.57 to DSA's NYC chapter on September 15 and filled in the purpose field that the funds were for "Other: explntion / Texting." Mamdani's campaign has previously given numerous smaller payments totaling roughly $3,000 to DSA for "Fundraising / Fundraising Emails" but the September donation represents by far the largest contribution to the group since his campaign was launched. NYC-DSA has received 36 payments, totaling over $33,000 from Mamdani's campaign since early 2025."
"DSA organizer Daniel Goulden claimed the organization has been intimately involved in Mamdani's campaign, even helping to write portions of his platform. "With Zohran, we're in basically the best possible position to seize state power that we can be in because, you know, we're like this," Goulden said, indicating with his fingers that the campaign and organization are very close. Goulden went on to suggest that "one of the things that made Zohran really successful with his policy rollouts is specifically relying on DSA.""
