Ohio Democrats raise more than $500,000
Ohio Democrats raised more than a half million dollars tonight during the state party's annual state dinner at the Ohio State Fairgrounds in Columbus.
More than 3,100 Democrats are waiting to hear from the keynote speaker, U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York. They paid $150-a-head for the fund-raising dinner.
The record, though, was about 4,500 people in 1996 when President Bill Clinton spoke at the state dinner in Columbus as he was running for re-election.
Before tonight's dinner, Sen. Clinton attended a private fund-raising party in New Albany, raising more than $230,000 for her presidential campaign.

Post a Comment*And to think ODP Chairman Chris Redfern said that they sold 5,000 tickets to the event...
There's a big difference between selling 3,100 and 5,000, Mr. Redfern!
maybe - yes - sold the tickets - before - it was made clear that only - Sen./Cand. Clinton was gonna' - talk and talk and talk and -
probably figure the cost of the purchased ticket - was nothing to being insulted - by pure - boredom!
