Political Fundraisers --- Need to Hire
Published by: jane 2009-01-07

Hi There ! I have a friend who wants to run for state office in California in 2006. He's a Democrat who is already in the government, but ambitious for higher office. (We don't discuss politics since I drank too much beer and made an unfortunate remark about Thesesa Heinz Kerry.) ;-) My friend wants to hire professional Democratic fundraisers. The only company I've found is Levine/McEvoy Fundraising Consultants. I found them through "Campaign & Elections" magazine. A 5-star answer would be a list of 20 Democratic fundraisers similar to Levine/McEvoy. My friend lives in California; I get the impression fundraisers will work in any locale where they can make a buck. All I need are names and telephone numbers. Other contact information (web site, fax, etc.) would be helpful, but not necessary. California firms would be best, but firms across the U.S. would be welcome. My friend has money from his previous career; I suspect he would prefer to pay top dollar to get a "name brand" and well-regarded consulting firm. All comments greatly appreciated. Thanks! ron

Hello Ron, There's a directory of fundraising consultants in this article from Campaigns & Elections, March, 2002: http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_2_23/ai_85532936 In that article, consultants associated with the Democrats are designated with a "D" after the name of the firm. From that article and some additional web searching, I've compiled a list of more than 20 fundraisers specifically associated with Democrats.
