With the election just a day away, a New York City Council race has seen a surge of outside spending over the past week from a super pac tied to allies of former governor Andrew Cuomo — whose treasurer is a sitting member of the city’s Board of Elections.

The six-figure spending is meant to defeat Lindsey Boylan, a former aide who was the first person to publicly accuse the ex-governor of sexual harassment and is now running in the April 28 special election for the District 3 City Council seat on Manhattan’s West Side. It came days after Mayor Zohran Mamdani endorsed Boylan just over a week ago.

The super PAC Westside Progress reported spending $144,500 starting last week on ads, texts and phone calls supporting Carl Wilson, who was former Councilmember Erik Bottcher’s chief of staff and has much of the establishment support in the race. That’s more than the race’s four candidates had raised combined as of last month. Westside Progress has received most of its own funding from yet another super pac, called Next NYC, which kicked in $175,000 last week.

Next NYC’s donors are not listed on the city’s campaign finance website, but disclosures filed with the state show that the group has received $233,000 from 12 people. Eight of those people donated money last year to either Cuomo’s campaign or the super PACs that supported him. They include Jennifer Bayer Michaels, Cuomo’s longtime campaign fundraiser who gave $5,000 to the new group; Luciana Fato, a corporate lawyer who donated $40,000; and Amanda Eilian, an investor who gave $25,000.
