Several Romney fundraisers are now saying many of the big donors that had been staying “on the sidelines” in the primary are coming to their camp and writing big checks.
Romney is ramping up his fundraising schedule, focusing on events with high-dollar donors in the Northeast and elsewhere around the country, in between campaign stops.
A breakfast last week at the Marriott Marquis in New York City hosted by Jets owner Woody Johnson, smaller private lunches and dinners in Manhattan, and events in Florida, Connecticut, and Boston, have or will help fill the coffers ahead of the long road to November.
Upcoming fundraisers on May 16 and 17 in Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville, and Boca Raton are expected to reel in millions for the effort. The events will be tiered, arranged so that the more a donor gives, the more time he or she will get to spend with the presumptive GOP nominee. » | Tuesday, May 01, 2012
