"NJ Gov Phil Murphy's Taxpayer-Funded Extravagance: Taylor Swift Concert and Stadium Events"

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy used $12,000 in state funds for food and drinks at a Taylor Swift concert and other stadium events. Murphy's office is now asking the state Democratic Party to reimburse taxpayers for these expenses. The governor's office initially used a personal expense account but realized it was meant for official purposes only. Former Governor Chris Christie faced a similar issue and had the state Republican Party reimburse the expenses. Murphy's office spent a total of $12,867 on various stadium events, and the state party is being pursued for reimbursement.
