ALBANY — Two payments to the Mayflower Hotel in Washington were included in former Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s campaign filings, which were released on Tuesday afternoon.
The two payments, $411.06 apiece, were recorded on Jan. 14, 2008, although it is unclear what nights were covered, or whether Mr. Spitzer stayed at the hotel.
A person with knowledge of the evidence developed in the federal investigation of Mr. Spitzer said the former governor had two encounters with prostitutes in Washington in early 2008.
Whether Mr. Spitzer might have misused campaign money to finance dealings with prostitutes has been one of the significant unanswered questions as federal prosecutors have weighed whether to criminally charge him.

And I suspect that Spitzer paid out of his own pocket the $4,000 for his tryst with Ashley Dupre.
