California Governor Gavin Newsom Buys $9.1 Million Marin County Mansion Amid Homelessness Fund Audit, 50% Increase
Nov 17, 2024, 11:45 PM
California Governor Gavin Newsom has purchased a $9.1 million mansion in Marin County, moving part-time to one of the wealthiest areas in the US. The six-bedroom property, which includes floor-to-ceiling windows, a swimming pool, and a spa, was bought for 7% over the asking price. This purchase has sparked controversy amid reports that $24 billion allocated for the state's homelessness crisis is unaccounted for, with an audit revealing the discrepancy. Additionally, homelessness in California has increased by 50% despite the significant expenditure. Newsom's new home acquisition comes as he faces scrutiny over his handling of the homelessness crisis and other state issues. The governor's annual salary is $200,000.
