== NYCLASS and the 2013 New York City Election ==
NYCLASS was a key member of the "Anybody but Quinn" coalition,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Anti-Quinn Group Set for Two Final Weeks of Battle )〕 also known as "NYC is Not For Sale," 〔http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/08/nyregion/outside-group-starts-spending-to-block-quinn.html〕 that played a pivotal role in the New York City mayoral elections in 2013 in opposing the candidacy of Christine Quinn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Democratic Horse Activists Ready to Back Lhota Over Quinn )〕 Quinn's support began to decline precipitously after the coalition's PAC began its efforts,〔http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/pac-pummels-nyc-mayor-wannabe-quinn-article-1.1386683〕 which raised $1.4 million for its initial television ads.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='NYC Is Not For Sale' TV Ads Target Christine Quinn )〕 NYC Is Not For Sale was the 4th largest independent spender in the New York City Elections, with NYCLASS own spending ranking 16th.〔http://www.commoncause.org/atf/cf/%7BFB3C17E2-CDD1-4DF6-92BE-BD4429893665%7D/Common%20Cause%20NY%20--%20Analysis%20of%20IEs%20in%20NYC.pdf〕 They endorseed Bill de Blasio in the general election. After his landslide win, NYCLASS held a private fundraiser and awarded de Blasio a bronze horse.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=De Blasio attends anti-horse-carriage fundraiser - Capital New York )〕 NYCLass also endorsed other candidates such as Helen Rosenthal for City Council.
In April 2014, a prominent New York newspaper reported that FBI was investigating NYCLASS for possible threats made against Christine Quinn during the mayoral race. The FBI is looking into whether NYCLASS's tactics crossed the line to extortion.〔http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/exclusive-fbi-probe-expands-de-blasio-mayoral-campaign-article-1.1769448〕
In December 2014, NYCLASS and its Executive Director Allie Feldman were fined $26,054 by the NYC Campaign Finance Board for illegally coordinating independent expenditures on behalf of two 2013 City Council candidates (Mark Levine and Laurie Cumbo) and for misrepresenting those expenditures as independent when, in the determination of the CFB, they were not. These are the largest fines ever imposed by the CFB.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NYCLASS Hit With ‘Severe’ $26,000 Fines - Observer )〕
