Huffington Post – Former Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), who is running to return to the Senate from the Granite State, urged hedge fund executives at a Las Vegas conference on Friday to get involved in his bid to unseat Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.).
Brown and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) were the sole current or former elected officials speaking at the gathering, hosted by the hedge fund firm SkyBridge Capital. The annual conference brings some of the financial industry’s most powerful members to Las Vegas. While it is technically a nonpartisan meeting, the host, Anthony Scaramucci, is a prominent Republican donor.
