Stephen M. Saland

From dKosopedia

Stephen M. Saland is a Republican New York State Senator from Poughkeepsie.

In 2006 he faces a poorly funded challenger and has a campaign war chest of $348,004.

According to Rachel Leon, New York Common Cause director, the high contribution limits set by the New York state campaign finance laws permit politicians to build reserves. Some 55% of the campaign donations in the 2002, 2004 and 2006 election cycles were for more than $2,100.
