Hodes chasing cash in DC today too
Filed under Uncategorized by kevin landrigan at 11:35 am
While state Democratic leaders remain focused upon Republican Senate candidate Kelly Ayotte’s big fund-raising trip to Washington today, Democratic Paul Hodes is raising his own cash today.
Iowa Congressman Bruce Braley is Hodes’ special guest for today’s event at Cornerstone Public Affairs, a DC lobbying group.
Tickets are at least $500 a head for individuals and $1,000 for political action committees and can run more than double that amount for PAC ($2,500 to co-host).
On Sept. 30, IL Sen. Dick Durbin hosts a fund-raiser for Hodes with the same ticket prices at the Phoenix Park Hotel.
State Democratic leaders have critcized the Republican National Senatorial Committee for co-hosting an event for Ayotte who still faces a likely primary challenge in 2010 from Manchester Republican lawyer Ovide Lamontagne and Republican National Committeeman Sean Mahoney of North Hampton.
