California appears to have spent tens of thousands of campaign dollars on booze and limousine services, as well as over $20,000 at the luxury hotel where his wife works.
The tens of thousands of campaign dollars include limo services, luxury hotels, high-end restaurants and alcohol delivery services over the course of the second quarter, according to
FEC records reviewed by Fox News.

More than $20,000 of the campaign funds that were spent at luxury hotels went to the Ritz Carlton, Half Moon Bay, where Swalwell's wife has been the director of sales since February 2015, according to her
LinkedIn profile.
The California congressman dropped $566 on "Food & Beverage" through the alcohol delivery service Drizly in nine separate orders ranging from $5.79 to $124.86. Additionally, Swalwell spent $1,151 on "Refreshments" from seven trips to Capitol Hill Wine and Spirits, a liquor store local to the House side of the U.S. Capitol, and almost $4,400 at two California wineries on the same day for "Catering" and "Refreshments."
Additionally, in a filing listed under "Supporter Appreciations," Swalwell spent $205 on the website The Knot, where people list their wedding registries.
