Beverly Perdue is raising money in New York City today.
The Democratic gubernatorial candidate is in the Big Apple, according to Mark Binker's Capital Beat blog. He quotes an e-mail from Perdue spokesman David Kochman:
She went to New York to visit the White House Project, a national non-profit that helps elect women candidates. While she was there, she met with several Democratic donors, some of whom are in the financial industry.
Perdue has attacked rival Richard Moore, who as state treasurer manages the $77 billion pension fund for government employees, for accepting donations from Wall Street investment firms that help manage the fund.
The Perdue campaign also recently produced a Web video showing the New York addresses of some Moore supporters.
Contacted this afternoon by phone at her Washington, D.C., office, Perdue's fundraising consultant, Stephanie Berger said she knew nothing about the matter and referred further questions to the Perdue campaign. The campaign did not return phone and e-mail messages Wednesday afternoon.
