Then there's on-paper longshot Larry Hogan in Maryland. He's a moderate Republican and very popular former governor running in one of the bluest states in the country. Biden absolutely crushed Trump there, and Harris will do the same. Can Hogan somehow overcome those partisan headwinds? Some polls show the race very competitive. And now a tax scandal has hit Hogan's Democratic opponent:
Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic nominee for US Senate in Maryland, improperly took advantage of tax breaks she did not qualify for, including one meant for low-income senior citizens, saving thousands of dollars in taxes on two properties she owned in Washington, DC, and in Maryland. A CNN review of property records and tax bills shows that for both properties, Alsobrooks claimed for more than a decade a homestead tax exemption that is meant to apply only to someone’s primary residence, violating state and local tax relief requirements. She also improperly claimed a senior citizens’ tax break on her Washington property, cutting the tax bill in half. Alsobrooks, 53, never qualified for that tax break, but her grandparents, who owned the property before her, likely did. A senior adviser for Alsobrooks told CNN that she was unaware of the problem and that her attorneys are working with both Washington and Prince George’s County, Maryland, to resolve the issue.
Comment:
There seems to be a recurring problem with Democrat politicians evading taxes.
They don't want to pay their "fair share".
Whilst the Democrat Party treats the Taxpayers like they are their slaves.
