Overview

• Andrew Cuomo has raised $1.51 million in just 13 days since launching his campaign for New York City mayor on March 1, 2025, with 2,821 individual contributors backing his bid.
• Cuomo's campaign expects $332,530 of the funds raised to qualify for up to an 8-to-1 public matching funds program, pending approval from the city's Campaign Finance Board.
• Recent polls position Cuomo as the clear frontrunner in the Democratic primary, with 31% support compared to incumbent Mayor Eric Adams' 11% and Zohran Mamdani's 8%.
• Cuomo's rivals, including Zohran Mamdani and Adrienne Adams, have raised significantly less in the same period, with Mamdani reporting $845,000 and Adrienne Adams $128,000.
• Incumbent Mayor Eric Adams faces declining approval ratings and federal indictments, further weakening his reelection prospects against Cuomo's well-financed and high-profile campaign.
