SAN DIEGO — Cindy McCain’s debts with the county tax collector appear to be settled.
Officials said Monday that a trust controlled by the multimillionaire wife of Republican presidential hopeful John McCain had initiated payment on $1,743 owed in property taxes on a condominium.
The payment, due in April, was scheduled to default today.
“You can reasonably assume that it is paid,” San Diego County Treasurer-Tax Collector Dan McAllister said Monday.
Additional bills totaling $6,744 for the years 2004 through 2007 were paid by the trust Friday, after Newsweek magazine questioned why the trust had fallen into arrears on the two-bedroom, two-bath oceanfront property, McAllister said.
Incorrect mailing addresses might have been to blame, officials said.
The Arizona senator’s wife disclosed in May that she had a total income of more than $6 million in 2006.
