Overview

  • New reviews of FEC reports show Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign paid $3,508.92 to the Vdara Hotel & Spa in Las Vegas on March 25 during her tour with Bernie Sanders.
  • Additional filings list $3,445.59 at the Asher Adams in Salt Lake City and $3,165.76 at The Leo Kent in Tucson, aligning with March and April tour stops.
  • Fox News also cited payments this year to CitizenM in California, Hotel Vermont, Hotel Renegade in Idaho, and Lansdowne Resort and Spa in Virginia.
  • Sanders’ campaign reported smaller, contemporaneous payments at some of the same hotels, including $624.28 at The Leo Kent and three $487.54 charges at the Vdara.
  • An analysis reported more than 216 Sanders hotel-related FEC entries versus 16 for Ocasio-Cortez, and both campaigns did not respond to requests for comment.
