 | | Karben, who abruptly stepped down in May in the wake of allegations of a sexual nature regarding interns, has created a new political action committee, the NY Times Empire Zone blog reports, and funded it with $460,000 of the $534,091 that was in his campaign committee account. |
 | | Karben will have $134,091 left in his campaign account after this transfer, which he plans to use to pay bills and, if necessary, refund contributions to donors, he tells the Times. |
 | | Ben hypothesizes, again, that Karben’s departure had as much to do with his relationship with Silver, a fellow Orthodox Jew, as it did with his own shortcomings in the behavior department. |
