Los Angeles, CA -- Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald J. Trump will conduct what is likely Los Angeles' costliest political fundraiser tonight in Bel Air with a top ticket price of $449,400 per couple.
The ticket price is based on the maximum individual contributions permitted to a presidential candidate, $2,700, the maximum to a national party committee, $33,400, and the $100,200 maximum to additional national party accounts which pay for the national convention and national party headquarters buildings.
Additional funds go to various state Republican parties.
The ticket purchasers will join Trump for dinner, have a photo taken with him, be admitted to an earlier reception and be part of the campaign's "Presidential Trust," according to an invitation obtained by City News Service.
