L.A. TIMES: So does Democrat Pete Stark represent California or Maryland? “California’s Rep. Pete Stark, a senior House Democrat who helps write the nation’s tax laws, has been claiming a $1.7 million Maryland home as his principal residence in recent years, although he represents the Golden State’s 13th District on the east side of San Francisco Bay. The 77-year-old Stark has saved himself nearly $3,900 in state and county taxes by claiming the six-acre waterfront estate as his principal residence, according to an investigation by Bloomberg News. Maryland law allows the tax break only to those residences used ‘for the legal purposes of voting, obtaining a driver’s license, and filing income tax returns.'”

Taxes are for the little people! But it would be amusing to see someone file suit to have him declared ineligible for his seat. I don’t think it would fly, but . . . .
