Republican Meg Whitman has set a record in her race for governor. She has now spent more of her own money in a campaign than any candidate in US history. Whitman has poured $119 million into the race, including the GOP primary. The former eBay CEO broke the record set by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg last year.
