Former Senator Kyrsten Sinema’s campaign organization spent almost $700,000 in the final three months of 2024, with some expenses being incurred in Saudi Arabia, London, and Paris. The campaign spent money on luxury hotels and airfare, with security spending being the most significant expense. Sinema’s spending on hotels and airlines stood out compared to other retiring senators. Some funds were also used for legal services and expenses related to winding down her committee. Sinema ended the year with $4.3 million remaining in her campaign bank account. Her campaign raised only $2.52 in the final three months, but still spent on fundraising, events, meals, car services, automobile insurance, and event gifts. The campaign also refunded some contributions and closed down offices. Sinema’s campaign has faced criticism for her spending in the past, including other foreign travels. The Federal Election Commission allows campaign funds to be used for necessary expenses related to winding down a committee but prohibits personal use. Attempts to reach Sinema’s campaign for comment were unsuccessful, and her personal website is offline.
