GOVERNOR CUOMOS TOP DONORS IN THE FIRST 18 MONTHS OF THE 2014 ELECTION CYCLE

At least 102 donors have given Governor Cuomo $40,000 or more for the first 18 months of the 20112014 election cycle. Several of these donors took advantage of loopholes in New Yorks campaign finance law, using multiple subsidiaries or LLCs to give significantly more money than the states generous limits on individual giving. Many of these large donors gave at or near the maximum combined primary and general election individual donation level of $60,800. In the event the governor does not face a primary opponent in 2014, the campaign committee will be required to refund as much as $19,700 per donor. These donors gave a total of $5,789,332.35, about a third of the money Cuomo has raised since January 2011. This list does not add individuals donations to those made by their employers, but does combine separately-incorporated businesses which are part of a single corporate structure.
