Are Ward Tax Problems A Big Deal?

Shotgun Sam (RE: 5 voters ask Jeff Ward not to run ): And remember folks, Ward helped lead the charge against Phil Hart. All while dodging taxes …

DFO: I’m not too excited about the fact that Jeff Ward owes the state $6,664 to the state in taxes, an amount he says he has chiseled down to $1,000 through a payment plan. I also note that one of the individuals involved in making this complaint has attended meetings of the Rally Right, an arch-political enemy of Ward and the Reagan Republicans.

Question: Is this much ado about nothing?
