Worth a look 1

Worth a look Unusual reporting

Net worth appears to count $150,000 of household items twice

The form reports household goods as a lump sum of $150,000 and also itemizes Car/Van/Truck ($150,000). Reported net worth ($767,300) matches the totals only when both are counted, so it looks overstated by about $150,000.

What to check
  • Is each itemized asset held for investment (allowed) or personal use (belongs in the lump sum)?

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.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context 3

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $767,300; listed items add up to $617,300

Reported net worth: $767,300. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $617,300 (after removing the items counted twice). Net worth roughly equals the listed assets before debts — the debts may not have been subtracted.

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.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Net Worth ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Income & business ties

78% of listed income ($133,979) comes from Gadsden County Supervisor of Elections

Listed income totals $172,379 from 2 sources. 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”2023 Form 6 instructions, Income ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Wealth & holdings

Real estate worth $342,000 across 4 properties (45% of net worth)

Real estate holdings, as listed.

What to check
  • Look the parcels up with the county property appraiser: land use (vacant or improved), assessed value and when they were bought.
  • Check whether any listed liability is a mortgage on these properties.

Rule: Real estate holdings
“Real property: Identify by providing the street address of the property.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
