Jeremy Beaumont

Jeremy Andrew Beaumont (born November 5, 1961) is an American politician and businessman who currently serves as the 109th Mayor of New York City. 
Prior to entering politics, Beaumont was a businessman, the CEO of Green Mountain Foods, and held an estimated net worth of $15 Billion USD entering into 2016. 
Beaumont first entered politics with his election to Mayor of New York City, and would win a second term in office.
Beaumont, who had previously alternated between Independent and Democratic status, was a late entry into the 2016 Democratic Primary, but would move into a third-place position in the race behind Governor Irina Kuznetsov and Senator Gianna Carrollton. Notable for his heterodox political ideology, Beaumont would eventually drop out of the primaries to launch an Independent candidacy under the mantle of the Unity Party. The party's bid was notable for the amount of personal funding Beaumont dedicated to his campaign, but the party was dissolved shortly afterwards, after a number of political difficulties, including a controversial march led by Beaumont in which he blocked off New York City streets in order to lead a march on Wall Street. 
In late 2016, Beaumont was announced as the nominee for Secretary of Commerce for the incoming administration of Calvin Reed.Category:Mayors
