Good morning. It’s Monday. Today we’ll look at some of the biggest donors to former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s mayoral campaign.
When former Gov. Andrew Cuomo entered the New York City mayor’s race, there were questions about whether the scandal-scarred leader would be able to win back the support he lost when he resigned amid allegations that he had sexually harassed 11 women. (He denies the accusations.)
Three months in, the answer is clear.
Cuomo, who is leading in the polls, has racked up endorsements from the chairs of the Brooklyn and Queens Democratic Parties. He has been embraced by Black churches, showing up on many Sundays to address the faithful. And he has raised a fortune from labor and business groups.
But perhaps his greatest asset is one that is technically not associated with his campaign: a super PAC called Fix the City, which has raised an eye-popping $10 million to support his candidacy.
My colleague Nicholas Fandos dug into the donors to this group, which is already the single largest outside spending force in the race.
