According to this site, Ron Lauder gave to Bill Green's campaign in both '82 and '88.
Wasn't Lauder the Democratic nominee against Green in '84?
I'm confused, since I recall that it was also a pretty nasty campaign (I volunteered for Green -- who was a pro-choice Republican who managed to thrive even as his district voted consistently against Reagan and Bush, lasting until the 1992 election made his party affiliation too much of a curse). If it wasn't Lauder, who was his opponent (and did Lauder run for something else around that same time)?
Alas, I can't get any help from Google, Wikipedia, or the NYC Board of Elections site. And I don't exactly trust my memory from when I was 12 that well.
