Mitt Romney was in the eye of the Hurricanes Thursday.
The former Massachusetts governor and GOP presidential candidate held a fundraiser last night at the Raleigh home of Jim Rutherford, general manager of the Carolina Hurricanes, Rob Christensen reports.
The Romney campaign did not permit news coverage of the event. A spokeswoman said she wouldn't discuss who was there, how many people were there or how much money was raised.
Hill Carrow, a Raleigh sports marketing agent who is the North Carolina coordinator for the former Massachusetts governor, said he had been asked by the campaign not to talk about the fundraiser.
In announcing the fundraiser several weeks ago, Carrow said he hoped to raise $100,000 at the event, which cost $500 per person.
