HeS the Million Dollar Mam

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani spent the week connecting with ultra-wealthy liberal power players at pricey private fundraisers to reach his $4 million transition goal – even after saying during his campaign that billionaires shouldn’t exist.

The Democratic Socialist, elected to City Hall after promising to challenge modern oligarchs and lower living costs, started his high-dollar fundraising on Tuesday, asking Michael Novogratz, the billionaire CEO of crypto firm Galaxy digital, to co-host a sold-out fundraiser at a West Village home, according to the New York times.

“I’m going to cheer for him until he does something I really hate,” Novogratz told the paper.

“He’s not perfect, but so far he hasn’t messed things up.”

The next morning, mamdani, 33, went into a private Tribeca home, where Leah Hunt-Hendrix, an oil heiress, and marvin Anmori, a crypto booster, were hosting another fundraiser, the outlet reported, based on invitations they reviewed.

Next week, Mamdani will reportedly attend two uptown events and a star-studded Lower East Side party, meeting julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Ramy Youssef, Titus Burgess, and his mother, director Mira nair – where tickets start at $1,000.

Mamdani reached his $4 million goal by relying on wealthy donors to give as much as $3,700 to supplement his small-dollar contributions, his transition team told the Times.

The transition team added that the mayor-elect raised more then $3 million from nearly 30,000 donors.
