Efforts to unseat Mayor Adams draw cash for NYC’s 2025 race

The latest fundraising period for New York City candidates running, or considering a run, for local office in 2025 ended on Friday at midnight, with disclosure statements to the city’s campaign finance watchdog due on Monday. The filings offer voters a preview of the mayoral race to come, acting as an early test of whether any of Mayor Eric Adams’ potential challengers have the resources to take on the incumbent.

Another comptroller may prove competitive, especially given recent numbers. Brad Lander has raised $674,000 – including nearly $200,000 in this current fundraising period. Altogether, his campaign reports more than $300,000 in donations eligible for matching money. Myrie has also taken a lead on voting rights, criminal justice and gun control legislation in the state Legislature, while leveling pointed critiques at Adams management of the city.

But the fundraising yields will grow with a boost from the city, thanks to New York’s public matching funds program. Donations from supporters in the five boroughs could be eligible for up to $8 in matching funds for every dollar. The first public matching funds payment from the New York City Campaign Finance Board will go out on Dec. 16, following the next filing deadline in October.

Candidates who receive public matching funds are limited to spending $8.3 million ahead of a primary election.
