Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker getting tax break in 2022 on Texas home intended for primar [View all]

Publicly available tax records reviewed by CNN’s KFile show Walker is listed to get a homestead tax exemption in Texas in 2022, saving the Senate candidate approximately $1,500 and potentially running afoul of both Texas tax rules and some Georgia rules on establishing residency for the purpose of voting or running for office.
Walker registered to vote in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2021 after living in Texas for two decades and voting infrequently. In Texas, homeowner regulations say you can only take the exemption on your “principal residence.”

Raphael Warnock in a runoff election in December after neither candidate earned more than 50% of the vote in November’s midterm election.
