Andrew Yang’s contest to give away $120,000 to 10 Americans over the course of a year has attracted the attention of almost half a million people, according to a new report.

The raffle, which Yang announced during last Thursday’s debate, has apparently helped the 2020 Democratic longshot raise $1 million after 450,000 people entered the raffle within 72 hours and many of them also donated, Politico reports.

The Yang campaign told Politico that over 90% of the email addresses in its arsenal were acquired after the contest was launched.

The entrepreneur — whose primary campaign platform is to implement a universal basic income of $1,000 a month for American adults — is aiming to illustrate the need for his Freedom Dividend.

“We thought putting money into their hands in this way, would be an exciting way to do it,” Yang told The Post immediately following the debate. “I think we were clearly right, because the numbers have been tremendous.”

“I’m thrilled to see the Freedom Dividend in action with these 10 American families. I can’t wait for them to be picked. I can’t wait for them to talk about what it means to them. I can’t wait for us all to see how it improves their lives.”

Those who still want to enter can do so by entering their name, email and ZIP code at Yang2020.com. No campaign donation is required.

The contest will close Thursday night at 11:59 p.m. ET.

Yang’s campaign did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
