McCrory Spending $230K on New Bathrooms

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory (R) “plans to spend up to $230,000 in taxpayer funds remodeling bathrooms in his private living quarters at North Carolina’s Executive Mansion even as he demands belt-tightening for public schools and social programs,” the Raleigh News and Observer reports.

A spokesman said the bathrooms “were last spruced up in the 1970s, though he confirmed the facilities are still in working order.”
