Howard Dean Pollster Paul Maslin Joins Richardson Campaign
By Greg Sargent | bio

Time for some staff notes, junkies: Former Howard Dean pollster Paul Maslin has agreed to join Bill Richardson's Presidential campaign, I've confirmed.

The oft-quoted Maslin was Dean's pollster from March 2003 to the conclusion of Dean's Presidential campaign nearly a year later. Reached for confirmation, Maslin confirmed he'd agreed to join the Richardson campaign but declined to comment further.

"Maslin's a big get for Richardson," a Dem who's worked with Maslin says. "He's got real live Presidential campaign experience, and he's one of the smarter guys out there." Maslin -- whose firm is called Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin and Associates -- also worked for the aborted Presidential campaign of Senator Evan Bayh and has worked for a host of other high-profile elected officials, including Senator Patty Murray of Washington and former Governor Gray Davis of California.
