“#Ray McGuire announces run for NYC mayor in Spike Lee video<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Longtime Wall Street executive Ray McGuire announced his candidacy for mayor Tuesday night in a video narrated by filmmaker Spike Lee.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery New Yorker deserves a chance to get back in the game<\/a>, and all of New York deserves a mayor who can bring this city together and solve this crisis,\u201d says the Harvard University-educated McGuire, 63, who left his job as a vice chairman at Citigroup in October. \u201cAnd that\u2019s why I\u2019m\u00a0running for mayor.\u201d<\/p>\n

The timing of the announcement by McGuire \u2014 one of the highest ranking black executives in banking \u2014 was hardly random, Wall Street insiders told The Post.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe needed Biden to win to have a chance,\u201d said one financier active in city politics. \u201cNow that we know the city is going to get some bailout funding, voters might want a guy who can manage that, instead of a politician.\u201d<\/p>\n

McGuire has eschewed the city\u2019s matching funds programs, so he will be able to take larger donations and he already raised more than $1 million in 10 days in October, records show.<\/p>\n

A relative unknown, he\u2019ll need that money to help distinguish himself from the already large 2021 field of city pols vying to take over City Hall from Bill de Blasio.<\/p>\n

As of now, city Comptroller Scott Stringer, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, former de Blasio legal counsel Maya Wiley, ex-Obama cabinet member Shaun Donovan and former de Blasio Sanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia are seen as the most likely leaders in the clubhouse.<\/p>\n

But McGuire says he\u2019s ready for a brawl.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cSome folks say New York city is done,\u201d McGuire says. \u201cBut to paraphrase the great Muhammad Ali: If you ever dreamed of beating New York City, you better wake up and apologize.\u201d<\/p>\n

To which Lee adds: \u201cAnd if you don\u2019t know, now you know. Dig?\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
