State auditor behind on property taxes
RALEIGH (THE ASSOCIATED PRESS) - North Carolina's top financial watchdog has fallen behind on paying the property taxes she owes on her Raleigh home.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Wednesday state auditor Beth Wood owes Wake County about $1,200. The tax bill was due in September and started accruing interest last month.
The Democrat is a certified public accountant who took office last year. Wood says she borrowed $90,000 to pump into her campaign, and she's like other average people trying to juggle debts.
Wood makes $123,000 a year as state auditor. She says her personal finances are irrelevant to her work in state government.

In the position of State Auditor integrity and trust key. The way she manages her personal finances directly reflects on her ability to audit state finances.
Beth Woods says she's just like the rest of us trying to juggle our debts. BS. Most of us don't make $123,000 a year and live in a $124,000 townhouse. Mrs. Woods must have fetish for shoes and high-end designer labels the rest of us don't share either.
