One of my sources was Harry Reid’s first campaign manager from 65 to 75. Don had on a number of occasions picked up “bags of cash” from Conforte for Reid. He also said Conforte’s Cadillac trunk was filled with ballots.

must have been one of daxton’s sources?
Yup. Don was the first source. I’d worked with him on public relations for Yucca Mountain in the early 90s. He was hired because of his connections to Reid.
Another source was Mike, who worked under Lefty Rosenthal in the cage at the Stardust. Lefty had him bag up $1 million for Reid. Both Don and Mike had produced Lefty’s TV show, but at different times and didn’t know each other. Corroborated sources.
