From what I read, Gov. Arnold paid for her ticket
Must be one of Arh-nold's thousands...
Not at all true.
Her boss was hit up for a contribution, which he made. It also comes with a "title" of "Honorary Chairman" to some committee. To give you an idea how important the committee is, I was offered the same title 2 weeks ago if I was willing to pay for it.
Make the donation, get the ticket. Arnold had nothing to do with it.
