Maryland governor candidate Wes Moore to hold fundraisers in the Hamptons, on Martha's Vineyard this month


Wes Moore
, the Democratic nominee for Maryland governor, will be raising funds with some boldfaced names in New York and Massachusetts in the coming weeks. Director Spike Lee will host Moore for a fundraising event at his home on Martha's Vineyard on August 14, CNBC reports. Attendees will pay $500 to $6000 to get inside Lee's Oak Bluffs mansion.

A week later, Moore will head to the Hamptons for a second fundraiser hosted by Dilation Capital hedge fund managing partner Brian Eizenstat and C-Street Advisory Group CEO Jon Henes. CNBC reports that ticket prices are the same for that event. Moore is only one of many gubernatorial and presidential candidates heading where the money is this month; Stacey Abrams, Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Ben Sasse and Lee Zeldin all have similar events planned in the Hamptons.

Moore's travel itinerary has caught the attention of his Republican opponent, Dan Cox. In a fundraising email to supporters, Cox said that while Moore "is raising money from the international law firms and big pharmaceuticals and is in the Hamptons this month raising money from Oprah, C-Street globalists and power-hungry radicals, this week I was in the neighborhoods of West Baltimore hearing concerns of students and parents."

I did not know Spike Lee lives in Maryland. Takoma Park?

Just another limousine liberal who will bend the knee to wealthy donors and unions. It's not like these folks will send them to exclusive private schools like he went to...

Democrats specialize in keeping their poor voting base poor so they can keep them hooked to the drug of entitlements and never leave their lane. Winter is coming...

You must be joking.

Do Trump or his PACs not financially support Cox? I don't know what would be worse: Cox is comically hypocritical or not even Trump will donate to Cox.

News? Every Governor candidate in the country regardless of party raises money. Let's hope that Moore wins. The Republican candidate is so bad even the current Republican not only refuses to endorse him, he has indicated he will not vote for him.
