descriptions for the various gigs \u2014 including campaign directors, borough directors and community liaisons \u2014 all read like a playbook from the NYC-DSA\u2019s ground game that helped elect the young democratic socialist to the city\u2019s highest office. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Soviet politburo called, they want their job announcement back,\u201d one Democratic strategist quipped.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not known how much City Hall has allocated for the mayoral office aside from the roughly $1.6 million in salary for the open positions \u2014 and the more than a quarter of a million dollars for the commissioner, longtime DSA member Tascha Van Auken.<\/p>\n<p>Van Auken, who served as Mamdani\u2019s field director during the mayoral campaign, will lead the office that\u2019s broadly billed as being \u201cresponsible for strategizing, coordinating, and executing on engagement that reaches the masses of everyday New Yorkers.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module aligncenter wp-block-nypost-editor-primary-tag\">\n<\/aside>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m old enough to remember when the mayor\u2019s office didn\u2019t need co-governance with anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One newly created post, deputy director of co-governance \u2014 which comes with a comfortable $150,000 salary \u2014 particularly raised eyebrows in political circles.<\/p>\n<p>That person will be tasked with creating \u201cinternal Co-Governance training to build interagency understanding of co-governance best practices and alignment for transforming relationships with the community,\u201d and training for communities to \u201d to engage and drive mass governance projects and campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The language is almost identical to what NYC DSA co-chair Grace Mausser called for in her manifesto last year, \u201cBuilding Municipal Socialism in New York With DSA.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><button
