KindCountyAssessor's value
homeWeld$686,743
homeWeld$657,231
homeAdams$531,000

The county assessor's actual value (the 2025 reappraisal, an estimate of market value in mid-2024), from the state's parcel records. We match parcels by the owner's name where their office or race is, or by the legal description or address on their disclosure; we don't show addresses, parcel numbers or co-owners. Property held in a name we can't connect to them isn't here.

Personal Financial Disclosures

Income listed: up to $199,997; debts: up to $794,994 on their latest disclosure with entries: the top of each range they selected, added up (the form asks for ranges, not amounts; a range with no top counts at its figure).

Findings

Worth a look Late or missing

TRACER lists a penalty for a late financial disclosure (April 21, 2025)

The Secretary of State's campaign finance system lists a “Late PFD” penalty dated April 21, 2025 on their candidate record; its status: paid, waiver requested. A disclosure is due within ten days of a candidate affidavit, and by January 10 each year for those in office; a late one accrues $50 a day until it's filed.

What to check
  • The penalty on the candidate's TRACER page (Penalties tab): the date, status and any waiver.
  • When the disclosure was then filed (their disclosures on this page).
