A significant amount of $22 million has been raised to defeat Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, with 26 billionaires contributing to his opposition.

“Billionaires like Bill Ackman and Ronald Lauder have poured millions of dollars into this race because they say we pose an existential threat,” Mamdani told supporters at an October 13 rally. “I am here to admit something, they are right.”
Notable contributions include Bill Ackman's $1.75 million and Ronald Lauder's $750,000 to support groups opposing Mamdani.
