Subject: At Large State Board of Education candidate is Maryland resident? Is that allowed?
Good morning,
I appreciate the DC Urban Moms and Dads ensuring the integrity of DC campaigns and candidates. Let me be be very clear in questions about my residency: I bought my home at 3521 21st Street SE on Oct 15, 1999. I have not resided, voted, paid income taxes or registered a vehicle in any other jurisdiction or municipality since that date. I am more than happy to provide my drivers license, voter registration, income taxesrecords and current utility bills to all who would like proof.
While I do not feel I should have to explain owning another home, I will conclude my reply with this, I am a very proud DC resident who has served my country in the military, served my community in various capacity and now takes care of not only my immediate family but extended family that has fallen on financial difficulties. I’m unapologetic about the ability to be able to do so because I know what it’s like to struggle in DC, as I went 18 months unemployed during the recession. Any one who would like to call me on this matter for verification can reach me at 202 834-2553
Sincerely,
Jacque Patterson, Sr.

Maybe you can do the same and find out where Vincent Orange actually lives? He has a house in Brookland but it’s clearly unoccupied except for lots of yard signs.

Is this also election fraud?
It’s definitely other fraud in the election as well. A Ward 7 candidate uses his parents address for a NW school for his son. License and car are registered to his parents home, but lives and owns his home in Ward 7.

Why don't you tweet him or email him and see what his response is?

That could be the route to go. If anyone has someone in their network/social network who knows DC election law I'd be curious to hear their take on this.
This woman seems like she knows how to expose bad behavior

My guess is he is using the DC property as residency for school
Wow. The one legit possibility I can think of is that he and his wife are secretly separated and one of them really does live in DC. (Of course, that covers school but not running for office unless he is the one in DC.)
See that's what I thought too, and I wasn't going to give it a thought for that reason, but them I checked his website:
"Jacque currently lives in the Shipley Terrace neighborhood in Ward 8 with his wife LaShandra and his two youngest children, Jacque Jr. and London. "

Hey all,
A colleague of mine was doing research on the At Large SBOE race and discovered this about Jacque Patterson. I didn't think it possible for DC candidates to be MD residents, I'm pretty sure they can't. Either way, curious to hear your thoughts
"Doing a basic name search on Google I came across a WaPo posting which led me down a rabbit hole of what appears to be strong evidence suggesting that Jacque Patterson has been an MD resident since 2016.
It started with a link to an announcement of new home sale of [REDACTED] Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 in the Washington Post. Publicly available information from seller shows sale to candidate Jacque Patterson and candidate's wife.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/prince-georges-county-home-sales/2016/12/12/c9533be6-b663-11e6-b8df-600bd9d38a02_story.html
It gets weirder, I searched Maryland Department of Assessment and Taxation records indicating [REDACTED] Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 as PRINCIPAL RESIDENCE of candidate and candidate's wife. Principal residence is defined by MD Code Of Regulations (COMAR 18.07.03.01 (B)(3)) as "the one dwelling where the homeowner regularly resides and is the location designated by the owner for the legal purposes of voting, obtaining a driver's license, and filing income tax returns."
Even weirder, I searched PG County tax records showing the purchase of property [REDACTED] Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 and subsequent tax payments dating back to 2016. Most recent payment made 9/14/2020. Property is listed as PRINCIPAL RESIDENCE. Again, principal residence is defined by MD Code Of Regulations (COMAR 18.07.03.01 (B)(3)) as "the one dwelling where the homeowner regularly resides and is the location designated by the owner for the legal purposes of voting, obtaining a driver's license, and filing income tax returns."
Jacque's Statement of Candidacy filed 6/12/2020 under DC address [REDACTED] Street, SE, Washington, DC 20020 https://efiling.ocf.dc.gov/Disclosure/FilingHistory/15126
Publicly available tax records identify the above property as being owned by candidate Patterson, however no publicly available evidence indicates that the above address is the principal residence. In fact, candidate Patterson is NOT receiving the DC Homestead deduction, which would suggest this property is no longer eligible.
Finally, candidate Jacque Patterson is currently taking advantage of a semi-annual tax payment system only eligible to MD residents. "Tax bills must be paid by September 30th in full unless paying semiannually. Semiannual payments are offered for owner-occupied residential property only. Your tax bill must have the statement 'Principal Residence' on it." https://t.co/Bz9HRNTBzU?amp=1
To put a cherry on top, based on publicly available DC Superior Court Records, Patterson has been sued multiple times in the last several years for NOT paying the HOA dues on his DC property. Why, with two kids, would he live in a 1200 sq foot home in DC when he has a 3600 sq foot. half million dollar house in Maryland where he claims residency? Jacque attempted to run for At Large SBOE in 2016 but he was disqualified due to insufficient valid signatures. Did he move to MD after that? I feel like I have no idea who this guy is."
To summarize, it would appear that Jacque Patterson, as of most recently available public tax records, is a resident of Upper Marlboro, MD. The PG County tax records which indicate Patterson's principal residence at Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 are current as of 9/28/2020. However, he has used a property in DC to presumably register to vote, and subsequently file as a candidate. This seems to be against some Board of Election rules but honestly I don't know enough about DC election law to say for certain.
