“In the very first moment of his campaign, Wisconsinites made clear they don’t want a California bank owner who is out-of-touch with Wisconsin values representing them. Maybe his megamansion in Laguna Beach would have been a better spot for his campaign launch,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin Rapid Response Director Arik Wolk.
Eric Hovde owns a $2.8 billion California bank, which he admits is his ‘main business,’ in addition to a $7 million ocean view mansion in Laguna Beach, California. Hovde’s mansion is located in one of California’s most luxurious and exclusive private gated communities, complete with California’s only private beach, a private fire department, and private yacht parking dock. As the owner of a $2.8 billion California bank, Hovde is so involved in his California community that he’s been named one of Orange County’s most influential people three years in a row.
