Swalwell's filings also show a $962 reimbursement for tickets to 49ers co-owner Gideon Yu on Feb. 8 and expenditures of more than $100 at Allegiant Stadium, where the 49ers played the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. 

Another major expense was $30,900 to the "Las Vegas Raiders," the NFL team that plays at Allegiant Stadium. The filing said the expense was for "Event Tickets for Fundraising Event." The filing also shows the campaign spending nearly $3,000 for "food and beverages" at Alexxa's Las Vegas, a restaurant and bar "located at the heart of the last Vegas Strip."

His campaign did not respond to a request for comment on the expenditures, which were first reported by the Washington Free Beacon.

The most recent filing also showed that Swalwell spent over $3,000 last month at the Loews Hotel Miami Beach, which includes a full-service spa and several restaurants and lounges. The filing also showed nearly another $1,000 being dropped on food and beverages at Mila Miami Beach, a "High-end Mediterranean & Japanese cuisine in a flamboyant venue with a stylish cocktail bar," according to Citybox Media.

Fox News Digital reported earlier this month that Swalwell's campaign poured over $90,000 into travel expenses during the last three months of 2023, including $1,700 in Dubai at the five-star Burj Al Arab Hotel.

Swalwell spending campaign cash internationally has become a common occurrence. Before Dubai, his committee, which has just three salaried employees, spent thousands of dollars at hotels and restaurants in London and Germany earlier in the year.
