Ann LePage, wife of Republican gubernatorial candidate Paul LePage, received permanent resident property tax exemptions last year for property in both Maine and Florida, the Kennebec Journal is reporting.
According to state records, Ann LePage is the sole owner of homes in Waterville and Ormond Beach, Fla. The exemptions deducted $200 from her Maine property tax bill in 2009 and $1,500 for her Florida property tax bill. To recieve the tax exemption, property owners must declare only the state to which they applied to be his or her primary residence.
The Kennebec Journal is reporting that the LePage campaign admitted the violation on Thursday and called it a paperwork error which would be remedied.
