Boston is raining cash on Pete Buttigieg’s presidential campaign, despite having two home-state candidates in the 2020 Democratic primary
The 37-year-old South Bend, Ind., mayor held two fundraisers — a grassroots event and a big-ticket dinner at Fenway Park. The fundraiser was hosted by Jack Connors Jr., a Democrat who chaired GOP Gov. Charlie Baker’s reelection campaign; Sharon McNally, president of Camp Harbor View; and Bryan Rafanelli, an event planner, prominent gay political donor and Hillary Clinton ally.
The candidate known as “Mayor Pete” has popularity in Boston that is the envy of local pols. He drew more than 1,000 people to Northeastern University in early April, just as he was gaining momentum, and packed 850 people into the Somerville Theatre for a grassroots fundraiser weeks later.
