Two different states, New Mexico and New York, and three different candidates – NM AG candidate Gary King, NY AG candidate Mark Green and NY Governor Candidate Eliot Spitzer have all returned contributions received from “…a New York Financier charged with sex crimes in Florida.”
King, running against Republican Jim Bibb, returned a sizeable $15,000 contribution from Jeffrey E. Epstein “…the owner of a large ranch north of Stanley (New Mexico) that includes a 30,000-square-foot mansion, was indicted in Florida last month on a charge of felony solicitation of prostitution.”
“Gary King said Tuesday he had never met Epstein face to face even though the New York financier had purchased the land from his family.” – how many candidates have never met the guy who gave them $15,000 for their campaigns?
Incumbent New York Attorney General, and current candidate for Governor Eliot Spitzer is returning $100,000 he received from the indicted financier. Mark Green already returned the $10,000 he received from Epstein.
