NYC Campaign Finance Board Approves Pre-General Matching Funds Payments to 2025 Candidates
10/31/2025
October 30, 2025 –Today, the NYC Campaign Finance Board (CFB) voted to approve public matching funds payments for the November general election totaling $4,641,927 to 62 candidates. This payment is the final payment of the 2025 election cycle. Today's payment determinations were based on disclosure statement #14 filings. In today's meeting the Board also voted on non-payment determinations for participating candidates who have not demonstrated eligibility to receive public funds payments as of today.
New York City’s matching funds program eliminates barriers to participation by providing access to resources New Yorkers in every community can use to run for office. The candidates receiving payment today have met all the requirements of the Campaign Finance Act and Board Rules, have at least one opponent, and achieved a threshold level of public support by raising small-dollar contributions from the city residents they are seeking to represent. Please visit the CFB website to find information on the two-part threshold candidates must meet to qualify for public funds, as well as additional information on the legal requirements to qualify for public funds.
The table below lists all candidates who have received a public funds payments throughout the 2025 election cycle.

HOW THE CAMPAIGN FINANCE PROGRAM WORKS
