Transcript of Schlesinger's quote below:
Matt Browner Hamlin :: Schlesinger on Lieberman's petty cash slush fund: "It's gotta be street money"
CT Bob: Senator Lieberman apparently went through $387,000 in petty cash during the twelve days preceding the primary. By comparison, Ned Lamont's campaign recorded a total of $500 petty cash for the same period. No other senate campaign has recorded anywhere near the same amount of petty cash being essentially unaccounted for. What do you think may be going on here?
Schlesinger: "Well, it's an awful lot of petty cash. It's more than our whole
campaign in petty cash.
I'll tell ya, it's gotta be street money. I mean, it makes no other
sense.
I really thought the days of that were over, back in the early sixties,
but I guess not.
It's unfortunate."
