Paul Pelosi.

No, but Sal Evola is a member of the Seeno family that ran for office in Pittsburg, CA, another East Bay city. (City Council).

Couldn’t find any connections between Seeno and Pelosi.

Even so, the business empire has afforded the Seenos hefty political influence: Campaign finance records compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics indicate the family has made at least $516,000 in contributions to federal candidates since 1989.

That includes sizable contributions to national and state Democratic and Republican party organs, as well as to California and Nevada politicians including U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.; U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., who heads the environment and public works committee; House Education and Labor Committee Chairman George Miller, D-Martinez; former Rep. Ellen Tauscher, D-Alamo; David Harmer, a Republican who sought to succeed Tauscher in last year’s special election; and former House Resources Committee Chairman Richard Pombo, R-Tracy.

In California, the secretary of state’s campaign finance database shows the company and members of the Seeno family have given at least $435,000 to various state candidates and causes over the past decade.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s campaigns and committees received at least $65,585 from the family and its businesses, while likely Democratic gubernatorial candidate and state Attorney General Jerry Brown’s campaigns received at least $45,500.

Among the family’s greatest beneficiaries has been Oakland mayoral candidate and former state Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata. The Seenos and their businesses gave at least $131,400 to his campaigns or committees under his control. Perata was the subject of a years-long FBI public corruption probe that ended this year with federal prosecutors declining to bring charges.
