Henry Stern of New York Civic summarizes a series of articles in a small New York paper called City Hall about a network of groups surrounding New York's hard left Working Families Party, the gist of which is that "Some of the Fund's financial supporters were the same as those for the Working Families Organization, including the biggest single named donation from 2006 (visible on a 'Donations by Deposit' form filed with the state attorney general's office): $200,000 from the Open Society Institute of billionaire philanthropist George Soros, who also wrote a $150,000 personal check to the Working Families Organization that year. Those donations are far larger than the $94,200 limit that the Working Families Party is bound to hold to under state law."
