Campaigns for Brooklyn boro president push past million dollar mark
The two men most likely to throw their hats in the ring for Brooklyn Borough President during the primaries in June have both raised enough funds to push them past the million-dollar mark.
Sen. Eric Adams’s campaign team said on Monday that nearly 2,500 people have contributed to his campaign—bringing his fundraising total of “mostly small-dollar donations” to about $420,000.
This qualifies Adams (D – Flatbush, parts of Park Slope, Sunset Park and Brownsville) for the maximum amount of funding – nearly another $800,000 – through the city’s campaign finance system because of the large number of contributions of $175 or less coming from Brooklyn donors.
