In a wage-theft settlement, DoorDash now has to pay its workers around 100 times what it spent trying to beat Zohran Mamdani.
Last year, well before DoorDash’s $131.5 million settlement with New York City for underpaying 264,000 delivery workers was announced Tuesday, the company spent around $1.4 million on the campaign to stop Zohran Mamdani, who oversaw the historic settlement, from becoming mayor.
Through that election cycle, DoorDash spent around $1.4 million against Mamdani and in favor of former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. The company was one of the top donors to the biggest outside spender in the election, a virulently anti-Mamdani super PAC called Fix the City.
I’m fairly certain this is the first time ever something like that happenned. And that it will never happen again? Surely they learned their lesson. Pinky swear?
let’s hope it keeps happening.
Just once I want to see an Onion headline like “Mamdani sneezes on man’s sandwich” or something like that just so we can have some temporary fake outrage about him
But seriously, this guy just can’t stop being amazing, can he?
