Tammy Duckworth Joins Keith Nygren in Double Homestead Exemption Problem
The Daily Herald put reporter Kerry Lester’s discovery that Congressional hopeful Tammy Duckworth on its front page last Wednesday.
Less than four months before the 2010 Republican Primary Election in which McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren was challenged by then-former and now-re-instated Deputy Sheriff Zane Seipler, former Democratic Party Coroner candidate Dave Bachmann revealed on his blog “Dirty Keith vs. Dirty Harry” that Keith Nygren and his wife had Homestead Exemptions both in Florida and McHenry County.
I picked up on it here. I wrote four articles on the situation and, then, the Northwest Herald wrote one.
Since then I assume the Nygrens have figured out that if Marge were a resident of Florida, she would be eligible for the pretty sizable Homestead Exemption there, while Keith could get one in Illinois of the Hebron house that has since been sold to a Deputy who is now retired.
Now, the Daily Herald has discovered that Joe Walsh challenger Tammy Duckworth has a similar problem.
Except, both of her Homestead Exemptions are in Illinois.
Here’s what the Daily Herald editorial board said Saturday about the Duckworth situation:
Duckworth’s unworthy explanation:
Congressional candidate Tammy Duckworth admitted to illegally claiming two homeowners exemptions on her property taxes.
She said it was because the exemptions automatically renew and she didn’t pay attention after moving out of a house she ended up renting.
In other words, she’s both a tax cheat and disingenuous in her explanation.
She’s a stupid tax cheat.
Anyone that backs this ridiculous person for election to anything deserves the corrupt government they get in the end.
1Hey, it’s o.k…….She’s a DemocRAT.
2What expect from a lousy CHEATER DEMOCRAT.
3You might be interested to know that Nygren “was” a Democrat. Ran as one a couple of times in McHenry County and lost.
So, he decided to be a Republican.
RINO!!
Gets donations from Ald. Ed Burke of Chicago,
Helps Jack Franks with his fundraiser. DUH!
4I don’t remember Nygren’s being on the ballot as a Democrat. I think he applied to replace Art Tyrell when he resigned, but he was not selected. The law required that Democrat Tyrell be replaced by a Democrat.
5What year did Art Tyrell resign, and why?
6FYI you my friend are SO SO SO correct.
Did you see the picture of Keith Nygren, the old Democratic Sheriff Art T, and the Undersheriff Andy the clown.
Nygren is a RINO and has got over on all the True REPUBLICANS in McHenry County for about 15 years.
Now Nygren is pushing Andy The clown, are the REPUBLICANS going to be fooled again.
VOTERS (REPUBLICANS) don’t let Andy the clown RINO fool you twice.
7If my mind serves me correct Art T, was a Chicago Policemen, and had other interest to make a lot more money so he left.
Hahahaha Nygren RINO.
