Tim Kaine, Democratic VP pick, attending private fundraiser Friday in Portland

Virginia Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton's running mate, will be in Portland Friday for a private fundraiser hosted by the CEO of Columbia Sportswear.

That's according to an invitation sent this week to potential donors of the Democratic vice presidential candidate.

Those attending the afternoon event will have to pay at least $5,400 to have their picture taken with Kaine, according to the invitation. Tickets start at $1,000 and top out at $27,000. The event will be hosted by Columbia Sportswear CEO Tim Boyle and his wife, Mary.

The invitation contains links that take viewers wanting to buy tickets to Hillary Clinton's official campaign website.
