Yang campaign says it received 450K entries for 'Freedom Dividend' contest

Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang's campaign said Monday that it has received more than 450,000 entries for a contest to promote his "freedom dividend" proposal.

The entrepreneur during last Thursday's debate announced plans to give a total of $120,000 from his campaign donations to 10 families — sparking audible laughter from some of the other nine candidates on stage.

The contest mimics Yang's "Freedom Dividend" proposal, which is a cornerstone of his campaign.

The 10 winning families will receive $1,000 a month, similar to how all Americans would receive the monthly stipend under Yang's proposal.
