It looks like Jacque, his twin sister Jacquelyn, and his sister in law Lekicia Johnson all live at the same address on 21st st SE.

Where does your twin sister, Jacquelyn, live Jacque?

I'm strongly opposed to Orange rejoining Council, but I've no idea what you mean by clearly unoccupied. I told him I support Paid Family Leave when I rode by on Sunday as he was getting into his car. (Most of his talking points at the debate were against it)

At least Patterson isn't staying logged in here like the Trump-wing candidate he worked on getting elected last time. It would be funny to see more turkey-neck drama.

Wait, so he has his sister-in-law, him, his wife, his two kids in a 1200 sq foot townhouse when he owns a 3600 sq foot palace in MD? Nope. I call BS.

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.


Wait, so when reassuring us that you can legally run in DC you admit to tax fraud in MD? Bold move, sir.

See this explanation makes sense if extended family were staying in your DC property, but why buy a half million dollar home near the PG/Charles border that is 3x the size of your DC residence for extended family to stay?

He didn't answer the question. No one said it's a problem to own two homes. The problem is claiming that the MD home as a primary residence for tax purposes but claiming the DC home for election residency.

They lack of answer on that and artificial defensiveness makes it pretty clear that there's something fishy going on that he's trying to cover up. Seems like a pattern with him.

This is all well and good Jacque, but does not explain why you are claiming principal residency in MD on your PG county and state property tax records. You had 4 years to straighten this out.

As a DC voter, I have to say that this overly defensive/aggressive response really turned me off. Either there really is an issue here re the residency fraud, or Mr. Patterson cannot handle the slightest questioning without overreacting. Either way I don’t think I want him in elected office.


How was that aggressive or an overreaction from people accusing him on an Internet forum of committing a crime? He was pretty calm and rational. You seem to be the unhinged one with an ax to grind for no apparent reason.

If you're a real DC resident, there's no reason not to take the homestead deduction - especially if you're having financial troubles. You can save thousands! The only reason not to do it would be being afraid of an audit/penalties and it actually isn't your real home residence. It just doesn't make sense to me at all. Is there an accountant or a financial expert who can tell me why someone would do this?
