Sarah Palin: House Gate

Village Voice broke this story. Essentially, House Gate concerns the question as to whether public funds, materials, and manpower for building the sports center in Wasilla had been used build the Palin family's new house:

Todd Palin told Fox News that he built the two-story, 3,450-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bath, wood house himself, with the help of contractors he described as “buddies.” As mayor, Sarah Palin blocked an effort to require the filing of building permits in the wide-open city, and there is no public record of who the “buddies” were. The house was built very near the complex, on a site whose city purchase led to years of unsuccessful litigation and, now, $1.3 million in additional costs, with a law firm that’s also donated to Palin collecting costly fees from the city.
But that's not the only alleged scandal involving Sarah Palin. For the most comprehensive list of the other ones, consult this timeline.
