Bloomberg pours more cash into Cuomo super PAC, bringing his total contribution to $8.3M

The ex-mayor has emerged as the single-largest contributor to the group.

NEW YORK — Mike Bloomberg’s vast wealth is continuing to power Andrew Cuomo’s front-running mayoral bid.

The billionaire former mayor contributed $3.3 million to a super PAC supporting Cuomo’s attempted comeback in the nation’s largest city — a donation made public on Wednesday that comes just days after Bloomberg gave $5 million to the group.

With the latest gift, Bloomberg is now single-handedly responsible for one-third of the PAC’s total haul of $24 million since it launched in March, according to a POLITICO analysis. Other real estate and finance executives who make up New York’s monied elite, including billionaire Donald Trump supporter Bill Ackman, have poured cash into the group.


A spokesperson for the super PAC, which is called Fix the City, did not comment on Bloomberg’s latest contribution.
