BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Mitt Romney is due in Buffalo to meet some big-money donors.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee is expected for a private event Friday evening at the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society and a dinner at the home of a donor.

The Buffalo News reports supporters will pay $2,500 to $5,000 to attend the Historical Society event and $10,000 for dinner at the home of Buffalo businessmen Tony Gioia. It's doubtful anyone other than attendees will get a glimpse of Romney during what's expected to be a million-dollar, two-hour upstate New York stop. The state is reliably blue, with registered Democrats outnumbering Republicans by 2-to-1.

The events come a day after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, which Romney has vowed to appeal if elected.
