Culvers stay at Knapp’s Florida property on vacation, but paid for their stay, an aide says
Iowa Gov. Chet Culver and his family stayed at Iowa real estate mogul and major Democratic donor Bill Knapp’s property during a trip to the Sunshine State last month.
But the Culvers didn’t stay there for free, spokesman Brad Anderson said. The governor paid to stay there beforehand, according to Anderson, although he did not know the amount.
Anderson points out the families are close friends.
“Bill Knapp has been friends to his family for 40 years now,” Anderson said.
Knapp co-chaired Culver’s 2006 gubernatorial campaign and co-chaired Culver’s inaugural committee with his wife, Susan Knapp.
