Joe Biden plans first New York fundraising blitz

Former Vice President Joe Biden is getting ready for his first fundraising blitz in New York as a 2020 candidate for president, CNBC has learned.

Biden and his allies are setting up at least two fundraisers that are expected to take place June 17 and 18, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter. While the venues are still to be determined, the events will be in New York City, these people said.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who recently indicated to friends that he’s planning to open his formidable fundraising network to Biden, will likely be invited to attend, those with knowledge of the plans said.

Jon Cooper, formerly a major bundler for President Barack Obama and now a backer of Biden in New York, told CNBC he can’t wait to attend the events.

“As a longtime supporter of Joe Biden, I’m anxiously awaiting his first New York fundraiser. I’ll be there with bells on. A lot of my friends are chomping at the bit to help Joe’s campaign, and they likewise can’t wait to attend,” he said.
