Billionaire Tom Steyer’s ad spending breaks records in California governor’s race
Billionaire Tom Steyer's $195 million ad spending in California's gubernatorial race sets a new record for political advertising in the U.S., surpassing Meg Whitman's 2010 spending and outpacing rivals like Xavier Becerra. Critics, including Katie Porter, accuse him of trying to 'buy the governor’s office,' while his campaign faces a crowded field with no clear leader ahead of the June primary.
