Paul Albert Fino (December 15, 1913 – June 16, 2009) was an American lawyer and politician from New York.

He went on to win seven more terms, serving in the 84th, 85th, 86th, 87th, 88th, 89th and 90th United States Congresses, holding office from January 3, 1953, until his resignation on December 31, 1968.

[1] His positions also included support for traditionally liberal programs such as Medicare (he favored national health insurance), Social Security, and mass transit.

The New York Times reported that Fino asked Lindsay for the appointment of a law partner as sanitation commissioner and was denied by the new mayor.

[2] Afterwards, he criticized Lindsay's more liberal legislative initiatives and mocked him for promoting New York as "Fun City".

[1] Lindsay countered by tacitly supporting efforts to remove Fino as the Bronx Republican leader.

The ticket included John J. Gilhooley of Brooklyn, a former assistant secretary of labor, for city comptroller, thus producing the ethnic trifecta of an Italian, a Jew and an Irishman.
