BIO

Arthur Finkelstein was a well-known Republican political consultant who successfully steered the campaigns of numerous national and international leaders, including Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond, Alfonse D’Amato, Connie Mack III, George Pataki, and Benjamin Netanyahu over his four decades long career.  He served as a pollster for President Richard Nixon and crafted Ronald Reagan’s stance on the Panama Canal which ultimately lead to his successful bid for the White House in 1980.  He is credited with pioneering the concepts of the primary voter list and independent expenditures (IEs), which are now a major force in political campaigns.
