“The processing issue resulted from standard fraud prevention practices, and we are promptly addressing it,” DNC spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg told USA Today. Tax records show a $147,000 bill—with $23,000 in late fees—from February 17, with a due date of March 31. The records show someone from the DNC making a property tax payment of $166,700 on July 23, only to have it declined. In total, the organization owed D.C. $313,000 as of Thursday. It really couldn’t get much worse, especially with massively consequential midterm elections less than three months away.
