Worth a look 1

Worth a look Missing or incomplete

$247,426 of assets itemized in an attachment on pages 5–6; $247,426 of it isn't found there

The form says “see attached” for 1 entry, and this copy includes the attachment (pages 5–6). Voya Retirement Accounts (see attached) — $247,426: no matching amount found on the attachment. An entry with no matching amount may be on a page that isn't in this copy, or the attachment may total it differently (or OCR misread it) — compare the page with the form.

What to check
  • Open the attachment page to see the individual holdings behind each total.
  • Compare the unmatched entries with the attachment, and with the filer's annual filing.

Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

Lists 2018 Audi Q5 SUV separately from the $65,000 household-goods total

Personal vehicles, jewelry, art and furnishings can be reported in the household-goods lump sum or itemized. Net worth doesn't appear to count them twice.

What to check
  • No action needed unless the lump sum also includes these items.

Rule: Household items listed twice
“Describe, and state the value of, each asset you had on the reporting date you selected for your net worth, if the asset was worth more than $1,000 and if you have not already included that asset in the aggregate value of your household goods and personal effects.”2022 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $1,013,217; listed items add up to $1,013,217

Reported net worth: $1,013,217. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $1,013,217. They roughly agree. 1 listed item(s) have no amount, so the comparison is incomplete.

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

Rule: Net worth vs. listed items
“Simply subtracting your liabilities from your assets will not result in an accurate net worth figure in most cases.”2022 Form 6 instructions, Net Worth ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Income & business ties

100% of listed income ($158,705) comes from State of Florida

Listed income totals $158,705 from 1 source. The largest is classed as government & public payroll.

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.

Rule: Where the money comes from
“List the name of each source of income that provided you with more than $1,000 of income during”2022 Form 6 instructions, Income ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Wealth & holdings

Reports a net worth of $1,013,217 — a millionaire on paper

Net worth is the filer's own figure. Being wealthy isn't a problem; it's context for comparing candidates and for reading the rest of the form.

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