Who paid for Gov. Scott Walker?s trip to southern California last weekend, where he mixed campaign fundraising with official Rose Bowl duties? UW-Madison listed Walker as part of its “official delegation” — which typically means the university pays for airfare and hotel stays. But in this case, his campaign paid for all his airfare and one night?s hotel stay, said Ciara Matthews, Walker?s campaign spokeswoman. Walker flew to California Thursday to attend political events. The campaign paid for his hotel stay Thursday night, Matthews said, and all costs up until 6:30 p.m. Friday when his official duties kicked in.
