Obama coming to raise money for Democratic Rep. Ron Klein

[Freddie Stubbs]

Confirming the high national stakes attached to the congressional race between U.S. Rep. Ron Klein, D-Boca Raton, and Republican challenger Allen West, President Obama will come to the Coral Gables home of former Miami Heat star Alonzo Mourning next month to raise money for Klein.

The Oct. 11 event is a joint fund-raiser for Klein’s campaign and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which means an individual can give up to $32,800 rather than the $2,400 limit to an individual candidate.
