- Gov. David Paterson’s campaign committee says it has raised more than $3.2 million in just over two months.
Paterson’s gubernatorial campaign committee was formed on April 14 — less than a month after he was sworn in as governor — and started fundraising on May 5. The Harlem Democrat rose from the lieutenant governor’s office on March 17 after Eliot Spitzer resigned amid allegations that he was a client of a high-priced prostitution ring.
Paterson campaign spokesman Jonathan Rosen says most of the money was raised at small events over the past several weeks.
The campaign did not release details about the fundraising, saying a full accounting will be available from the state Board of Elections on Tuesday.
