Is Clay backing El-Amin?

By Antonio D. French

Filed Thursday, January 19 at 6:03 AM

If her campaign finance reports are any indication, the Clay political machine may have a horse in the 4th district senate race.

Darryl Piggee and Pearlie Evans, longtime aides to both Congressmen Clay Sr. and Jr. donated to the campaign of Yaphett El-Amin. On the same day, Dec. 30, the last day of the reporting period, Piggee donated $500 and Evans gave $400.

Other standouts include former Mayor Freeman Bosley, Jr's combined donation of $1,200 (half through his Bosley and Assoc. firm), former Comptroller Virvus Jones' gift of $150, Alderman Jeffrey Boyd and his wife's combined donations of $900, Ald. Frank Williamson's donation of $350, St. Louis American publisher Donald Suggs' gift of $600, state rep candidate Jamilah Nasheed's $600, and a loan from the candidate's husband Talibdin El-Amin for $1,000.
