The tax petition being touted by Assemblywoman and candidate for congress Sharron Angle lists an expense of $5,000 as a loan repayment, but there is no indication that a loan was ever made to the PAC We the People, the committee behind the initiative. The Contribution and Expense report was filed in January 2006 and covers the time from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005 and lists all the contributions received and expenses paid, but that $5,000 tends to add a bit of glare to the pages.

On page eight of the report, this is in the expenses part of the report, $5,000 is listed as a loan repayment to Wayne Hogue of Reno. There is no report in the contributions section that a loan had ever been made. The political action committee was not in existence in 2004 so there is no C&E report from 2005. When The Nevada Observer attempted to reach Hogue at the number listed on the C&E report we were told that Hogue had not been at that number for at least six-years. . . .
