ALBANY—State Senator Jeff Klein raised more money in the last six months than any other member of his chamber.
Klein’s filing shows that the deputy majority leader raised $638,564, and has $866,984 in the bank. That’s more than President Pro Tempore Malcolm Smith, who raised $575,835; Republican Leader Dean Skelos, who raised $256,022; Democratic Conference Leader John Sampson, who raised $105,223; and Senator Carl Kruger, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, who raised $541,510.
