McCain to hold fundraiser in Century City Tuesday

Arizona Senator John McCain visits Los Angeles tonight for a political fundraiser. KPCC’s Frank Stoltze has the details.

Frank Stoltze: The McCain fundraiser is at the Century Plaza Hyatt Regency in Century City. It’s a favorite venue for political events that attract moneyed business and Hollywood elites. Tickets are $1,000 each – $2500 for donors who want a special McCain-Palin lapel pin.

Proceeds go to the Republican National Committee, California Republican Party, and McCain-Palin Victory Fund. That last organization disburses money to Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Those states could decide the election.

It’s a big Southern California week for the Republican ticket. Vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin headlines a rally at the Home Depot Center’s tennis stadium in Carson on Saturday.

She’s also the featured guest at a fundraiser in the Orange County Performing Arts Center Saturday night.
