Tom Hamburger from the Los Angeles Times previews Obama’s next six fundraisers in two days, raking in campaign contributions in Nevada and California.
That event will follow a Las Vegas lunch at the Bellagio Hotel, which will be attended by about 300 donors paying a minimum of $1,000. Another L.A. event occurs Monday evening at the home of Melanie Griffith-Banderas. Ticket prices start at $5,000. Approximately 120 are expected to attend. Campaign sources said expected guests include actress Eva Longoria and Mayors Antonio Villaraigosa and Julian Castro.
On Tuesday Obama will attend a lunch at the W Hotel, where ticket prices start at $5,000 and approximately 200 people are expected to attend. The event will feature a performance by Jack Johnson.
That’s a pretty big haul, but one event short of the President’s last West Coast cash crawl, attending seven fundraisers in two days.
