Here’s an invitation for a July 29 fund-raiser in Manhattan for Democratic State Senator Eric Schneiderman, which asks people to join David Paterson at the event.
Paterson has been criticized for not helping Democrats work towards winning a majority in the State Senate, and just this morning he made a friendly appearance on a radio show guest-hosted by Republican State Senator Joe Robach, who Democrats are trying to unseat.
The host committee for the fund-raiser includes four members of the Soros family, union leaders Stuart Appelbaum, Ed Ott and Randi Weingarten, and Empire State Pride Agenda executive director Alan Van Capelle.
