Jonathan Greenspun, a Mercury Public Affairs Managing Director and registered lobbyist, bundled $4,075 for de Blasio’s 2013 City Hall campaign, and donated another $23,000 towards his transition, according to campaign finance records.
Greenspun, a former community affairs commissioner for ex-Mayor Michael Bloomberg who was that administration's Jewish community liasison, was apparently hedging his bets during the campaign.
He also raised $5,000 for mayoral candidate Bill Thompson – who lost to de Blasio in the primary – and another $400 for failed Republican candidate Joseph Lhota.
A former aide to Republican Gov. George Pataki, Greenspun, who is also a Republican, has worked on many GOP campaigns - including Bloomberg's 2001 mayor's race, and Senate races for Al D'Amato in 1998 and Rick Lazio in 2000. |
