23. I did not make my point well.
I found the statement suggesting that Carolyn Kilpatrick is living high off the hog to be fraudulent and that the RNC is looking to dig dirt when there isn’t any.

The size of her district and it’s average income is of no consequence, her transportation allowance is the same as the representative of any other Congressional District.

A monthly lease of $819.00 for a car is next to impossible.

A monthly transportation reimbursement of $819, which would include a lease, mileage and maintenance reimbursements is very likely.

It’s not exactly a piddly point, since manipulations like this from the GOP will give her opponent a chance to say things like, “If elected, I promise to not to spend your money on blah, blah, blah.”
