Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $9,848,823; listed items add up to $352,877

Reported net worth: $9,848,823. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $352,877. A difference is normal: net worth also counts assets and debts that aren't listed individually (items under $1,000, credit cards, taxes), and the instructions say subtracting listed liabilities from listed assets won't give an accurate figure in most cases. 1 listed item(s) have no amount, so the comparison is incomplete.

What to check
  • No action needed unless other items look off.

Context Missing or incomplete

Assets itemized in an attachment on pages 5–6

The form says “see attached” for 1 entry, and this copy includes the attachment (pages 5–6).

Context Income & business ties

80% of listed income ($173,075) comes from Public Salary

Listed income totals $215,719 from 2 sources. The largest is classed as other / unclassified.

What to check
  • Who is this source, and does it have business before the office sought?
  • If the filer owns it, check the business section and secondary income.

Context Wealth & holdings

Reports a net worth of $9,848,823 — a multimillionaire on paper

What to check
  • Compare with the other candidates in the race.
  • Check that the large assets below are described and valued clearly.
