I voted for Alsobrooks because to me the vote was about control of the Senate not the candidates. I also figured there would be an open seat again soon because the mortgage fraud and local tax fraud suggested that there was also federal income tax fraud, which the government actually prosecutes people for.
My guess is that Trones research did uncover this and he decided not to bring it up. I don’t blame hogan for trying to make it an issue, but we’re talking about relatively small amounts for errors that were likely innocent. I am not sure Trone, with his personal fortune of hundreds of millions who probably has a very low effective tax rate, would have succeeded in making an issue out of property taxes that are basically pocket change to him. And it could have backfired for him if it caused people to do any digging on the taxes for his businesses and turned up something.

I'm sure she'll pay it, pay any fine, and move on
Exactly. But she is a black woman. Totally different standard than that for a rapist and a felon they elected.

Trump committed property tax fraud in DC too?

Why did the party not do their due diligence before she was on the primary ballot? I know they don't want to find out these things but that's one of the party's jobs. It sounds like there was no vetting of the candidate.
Maybe she's got a perfectly good explanation for it. Maybe the cases have been taken totally out of context. Doesn't matter.
I should not be learning about her taxes from an string of strong, coherent attack ads from Hogan and his PACs. The Alsobrooks campaign did not respond when the ads first appeared and never responded in the MONTHs that followed.
She's lucky that the Republican party is toxic to people like me. Ten years ago I would not have hesitated to pull the lever for a popular, two-term governor who has demonstrated experience working across the aisle.
I told my wife that I also might be in the market for a I hate Biden t-shirt, although I'd only wear it around the house.
I voted for Alsobrooks but there's too many of these stories surrounding her. Not paying tax bill, not getting permits for her rental properties. I voted for Trone over her in the primary. I can only think the party leaders pushed Alsobrooks because they didn't want MD to have two white guys as a senator. It's this kind of crap that is really hurting Democrats.
+1

Look, you probably voted for Trump and he brags about never paying taxes. Why the hardon for Alsobrooks who owes thousands compared to Trump's millions in back taxes.
