Here's Who Attended the Clinton Campaign's Closed Fundraising Event in Portland

The lunch with Tim Kaine drew big name Democrats (and a few Republicans).

By Nigel Jaquiss

On Aug. 19, a who's who among local Democrats (and at least a couple of Republicans) descended on Waverly Country Club in Southeast Portland for a meet-and-greet with U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), who is Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton's running mate.

Here's a partial list of those who joined Columbia Sportswear CEO Tim Boyle and his wife, Mary, for the private event, which cost attendees between $1,000 and $27,000 each.
