Ethan Lustig is Funded by Money from the IDC
Yesterday, I shared about the money Ethan Lustig-Elgrably is receiving from politician’s accounts (not their personal accounts). Ethan is running for South Brooklyn’s empty Assembly Seat.
I noticed that Nancy Tong’s donation was quite a bit later and a lot smaller than Charlie Ragusa’s donations.
I remembered Nancy Tong’s City Council account had a zero balance. Where did Tong get the money from and why did she wait to contribute? Ohhhh as a District Leader she has a NYS account. I thought she only had the NYC account.
I hit the campaign fiance account of Diane Savino. She’s spending money like it’s water. There are huge credit card payments – one for $7892…….why don’t journalist write about this? Look:
Campaign Finance tells us so much! Look at this:
Diane Savino gave Ethan the maximum – $4,400.00
Diane Savino gave Charles Ragusa $1,300.00
Charlie Ragusa donated that exact amount $1,300.00 to Ethan Lustig-Elgrably (first $1000 and $300 less than two weeks later)
Diane Savino donated $1300 Nancy Tong. Tong made a small contribution to Ethan, but didn’t give him all the money she received from Saving because she had to get Popeyes for volunteers.
Nancy Tong gave Ari Kagan $100 (Ari Kagan gave Ethan $150).
Ethan Lustig-Elgrably’s campaign is being funded by IDC contributions from Senator Savino’s account. Savino attended a fundraiser for the IDC in April after Cuomo said the IDC was over. Savio was caught on video.
Diane Savino knows the limit is $4,400.00 (page 13).
Diane Savino has also been funding the United Progressive Democratic Club in Coney Island. That’s Mark Treyger’s club which is also pushing Ethan Lustig Elgranbly. Are they really Progressives if they are accepting money from an IDC candidate and endorsing Savino over and over?
These pols think they are SO CLEVER…..they have been doing this for years to Coney Island.
Let’s look at Mark Treyger’s District Leader account – yes, Mark Treyger has a state account. Interestingly, Cozen O’Connor was on Treyger’s January report for a $500 contribution and also listed as a PAC on Ethan’s account here – also receiving $500.00. Most people wouldn’t think to look at Treyger’s state account because he is a NYC Councilman and has a city campaign finance account.
Oh we have only gotten started here.
